TFF. Another retard.

Yawn...

Rich,

Where do you get your information? Please identify the 80% "fat." I'm not gonna' bother looking it up again, but as I recall the largest part of the federal budget goes to paying entitlements like Social Security, medicare, pensions, etc. One of the next largest is interest on the national debt. Is that "fat" that can be trimmed? Next, or close to it, is the defense budget. I agree there is fat in there, but 80% would be a stretch, except for people who don't think national defense is necessary. The federal government actually runs on a relatively small percentage of the total budget. You could find some fat to trim there, but it wouldn't have that much effect on the total federal budget. Did you get your economics education at gnome school?
