Just cut the spending already.</p>\n<p>The Rasmussen Poll asked: \u00e2\u0080\u009cShould spending cuts be considered in every federal government program?\u00e2\u0080\u009d</p>\n<p>60% said yes.</p>\n<p>Let me put that in perspective. Ronald Reagan received only 58.8% of the vote in 1984 when he carried 49 states.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p>I say 10% across the board, including Defense, Medicare/Medicaid, and Social Security.  And a *real* cut, not a reduction-in-increase: if you got $1000 this year, you get $900 next year.
