"This would negate the positive effects of this."
I want to see non-military government spending reduced dramatically.
And what about military spending?
Um, where are Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and interest of the national debt? Those are huge budget items and you've just decided not to include them becaue it was inconvenient to your ideologically driven argument?
Behold, the typical conservative: quite fond of Big Government, as long as the spending is on things he agrees with.
Was this supposed to be a burn?
Are you saying I'm in favor of national defense? Guilty as charged.
Or are you saying I am in favor of Medicare and Social Security? Well, I am guilty of that as well.
My point, however, was that the graph he put up excludes some of the largest budget items to make it appear that national defense is a larger share of the federal budget than it actually is.
Shut your hole. I'm tired of your posturing; I'm tired of you slick conservative ingrates lying through your wormy little teeth every time a Democrat is in the Presidency about how much you'll shrink the government. Not once since that moronic charlatan Reagan assumed the throne have you been honest, as an ideological wing prone to groupthink, with the American people.
But your days are numbered, my friend. Indeed, we can't fund any liberal social programs - which means we sure as Hell can't fund your favorite subsidies, like defense or the prison-industrial complex. I guarantee it. Conservatism is dead. I hope I get to see your head paraded on a pike with it.
