The ONLY way we will EVER get control over the budget is to have a line item veto. That way we have ONE PERSON we can hold accountable and that person is accountable to the NATION while the Congresspeople only care about the portion of the nation that elects THEM. Pork Barrel spending can ONLY be stopped that way. Not too many presidents will veto an ENTIRE BUDGET and shut down the govt over pork barrel stuff. Sadly, our Congress enacts laws and our Congress is looking after ITS OWN HIDE just as they always do. We elect lousy representatives and we get lousy govt. jdn
