Probably people who will say anything to get a vote.
Cutting spending of any amount will have an effect on the economy. These Tea Party voters and congressmen will soon change their tune if the spending cuts effect them.
I heard once that Government spending included Congressmen getting huge Government grants for schemes in their areas. To pander to voters. Maybe that's an area the Tea Party should be looking at and making sure there's no spending in in their districts.
I see Bachmann talks good and thinks it applies to others.

Nice quote.

Bachmann Farm Reaped $252K in Gov't Subsidies
Free-market fan is a closet welfare queen, writes Yasha Levine
(Newser) - Rep. Michelle Bachmann is one of the Capitol's most vocal opponents of socialized medicine?but she's happy to take government handouts for socialized dairy and corn, writes Yasha Levine. Records show that the Minnesota Republican's family farm raked in almost $252,000 in agricultural subsidies between 1995 and 2006, Levine

Cut all Farm Subsidies to profitable farmers, raise food prices to cover the loss and open non profit shops for the poor. That would cut Government spending. Especially in Minnesota
Yes Government spending needs to be cut. But government spending = Someones wage packet. If that person resides in the US that will effect the US economy.
The only way for the US to get out of this mess is spending cuts, tax rises and increased production/exports. And less reliance on imported consumer goods.
