President Obama asked for ideas to tighten governments' belts! Taxpayers have listed critical issues and changes to help put America back on track! Not one word heard “we, the politicians that's driven America into bankruptcy, will cut our salaries and retirements!” Government must run like a business; President, Vice-President, Secretary/Treasurer, put into office by the Taxpayers! Some greedy politicians have too much time on their hands! Cut politicians salaries and retirements to $12,000.00 yearly! Take assets, pay off trillions they borrowed, without Taxpayers' consent, and sell them a one-way ticket to Gitmo! What an insult to the small businesses, struggling to make ends! Salaries and jobs are cut! Therefore, its' time for cuts and layoffs for politicians! Nafta and Cafta ruined America! Without manufacturing jobs, Taxpayers can't afford housing, autos, or anything? No more government bailouts, Freddie, Fannie, HUD, AIG,Banks, Automakers, Social, Welfare, or any organization in bed with government as these ‘endless money pits' must be cut. They're not working! ‘Fair Tax', to include property taxes, must pass! Americans must pay their fair share and stop making it the burden of the cash-straped homeowner thats' bearly getting by. Until government changes the ‘endless money pits', take responsibility for the bad debts they've created, ‘they're not solving the problem' - ‘they are the problem!'
