Can we balance the budget by cutting spending rather than raising taxes?

Cut spending so that the budget reflects only powers Constitutionally Delegated. If that can be accomplished then taxes can be reduced. If taxes are reduced enough business will increase and so will jobs.

The true middle class is taxed to death already. Almost 50% of American families pay NO federal income tax. That is a travesty!

The top 25% percent don't pay enough federal income tax, and capital gains taxes for the top 25% are too low as well. The Government WASTES at least 30 cents of every dollar it takes in.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
