ALL FLUFF

Yup, cap it right there and cut 10% from every program except military.
I can hear it now, BUT we Need this, we Need that, we Need the other thing.

You'll still have it less 10%

. Send in the "hatchet men" that corporations use
and by the time they find all the waste, 10% will look like chicken feed.

I don't think 10% will balance the budget.

Cut 20% from everything, 10% from the military (they've already cut 10%) AND scale back their commitments to avoid hollowing out that force as happened in the late 70s and in the 90s.

I agree John, it won't balance the budget but it would at least be a start.

Ya I remember attending my Nephew's Naval Academy graduation back in
the 90's and having one of the parents telling me his son was in Okinawa
hoding the helicopters together with bailing wire.

Defense spending.
