The TEA Party Budget

Unlike the scuzzbuckets who populate the North Ave. bridge (and who terrorize, rape, kill, and fire-bomb in other cities), the TEA Party folks actually thought about it, and present a plan.

--Repeals ObamaCare in toto.

--Eliminates four Cabinet agencies — Energy, Education, Commerce, and HUD — and reduces or
privatizes many others, including EPA, TSA, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac. 

--Ends farm subsidies, government student loans, and foreign aid to countries that don’t support us
— luxuries we can no longer afford.

--Saves Social Security and greatly improves future benefits by shifting ownership and control from
government to individuals, through new SMART Accounts.

--Gives Medicare seniors the right to opt into the Congressional health care plan.

--Suspends pension contributions and COLAs for Members of Congress, whenever the budget is in
deficit.

All of which will achieve what?

This:

Balances the budget in four years, and keeps it balanced, without tax hikes.

--Closes an historically large budget gap, equal to almost one-tenth of our economy.

--Reduces federal spending by $9.7 trillion over the next 10 years, as opposed to the President’s
plan to increase spending by $2.3 trillion.

--Shrinks the federal government from 24 percent of GDP — a level exceeded only in World War II
— to about 16 percent, in line with the postwar norm.

--Stops the growth of the debt, and begins paying it down, with a goal of eliminating it within this
generation.

Which (R) candidate will have the cojones to endorse this?

Not Romney.
