Governments waste money all the time. Does that justify what they're doing? Certainly not, but it is fact, and I don't think we'll ever eliminate it.
At this point the economy seems to be taking another down turn, so I don't think they can cut spending. My problem is the 'new' spending like the dumb crime bill that we'll be paying for the rest of our lives, and not only with money too.
Can they balance the budget? I think they can. But how many people will bitch when they do?
Personally they should be cutting around $5 billion out of the budget every year until it is balanced. I don't care how its done either.
