Cut government spending or shut it down and go home!


Right now, Congress is at an impasse over $60 billion in "cuts" to an already bloated budget that will saddle our children with more than $1.6 trillion in additional debt this year alone.

But the fact is, these "cuts" represent just 1.6% of this year's federal budget which has skyrocketed 10.5% since last year and 40% in just four years!

These miniscule "cuts" would be like the average American family ONLY adding about $49,000 in unpaid credit card debt this year instead of $51,000 and then bragging about "cutting" spending!
