Mos tof the budget is Militray social security adn interest on teh debt. Things that won't/can't be cut. I mean we can not pay on the interest on teh debt. Anyone that cut SS is not getting elected to re-elected. Proposing cutting the military budget will not get any republican the GOP nomination. So where are the cuts coming from?
Is there a lot of BS projects and pork? Sure we all say those have to go. But if our respective representatives got rid of pork for our own congressional district we would not re-elect him because he fail to "bring home the bacon". Fact is we only want OTHER people's pork cut, not out own. And with that attitude pork will never get cut when bringing home the most pork is the biggest requirement to getting re-elected.
