I think you misunderstood. I said that there should be NO defense cuts at all unless the Joint Chiefs say "Well... we can do without this.". Completely off the table unless the military voluntarily wants to give something up because it it not necessary for the purpose of defending the country.
Eliminating foreign aid... Good idea. Cut every last nickle of that.
Restore the half trilliion of Medicare cuts that Obama took out of it, back into Medicare. Remember, we are still going to leave the defense budget alone as it is a necessity.
Lets look at the National Endowment for the Arts.... Cut that. Artists are supposed to be starving. I say we help them out. Let them get real jobs like the rest of us.
Abolish the income tax, and scrap the code. Businesses should pay a flat 5% of revenue (not profit) tax when they sell to a consumer, 0% for business to business (as in raw materials, partial assemblies, etc.) sales unless the buying business IS the consumer for that product, then back to 5%.
The real piece of this puzzle is to GROW the economy by taking the handcuffs off.
