No, I didn't leave out any important cuts. Although if military spending explodes the way many other categories of federal spending have, I would add it to the list.

I know you will say that it has exploded. But while it has had a large increase over last year and an increase the year before that, there where years of real declines that ended not all that long ago. Most categories of federal government spending go up year after year after year.

Hey, thanks for the good word.

I always knew you were a gentleman. (and a fine judge of character)

But you gotta quit reading gloom and doomers like Fisk and prevaricators like Chomsky. You'll probably get over it some day. I know how it is to be intoxicated by leftism, I was once. Now I'm intoxicated by neoconism.
