Both the House and Senate budget plan would have cut Social Security and Medicare, while cutting taxes on the wealthy.

Kucinich noted that none of the government programs targeted for
elimination or severe cutback in House Republican spending plans
"appeared on the GAO's list of government programs at high risk of
waste, fraud and abuse."

[W]e have the situation with the deficit and the debt and spending and jobs. And it's not that difficult to get out of it. The first thing you do is you get rid of corporate welfare. That's hundreds of billions of dollars a year. The second is you tax corporations so that they don't get away with no taxation.

The USA has the 2nd highest corporate tax rate in the world, topped only by
Japan. The problem is in the tax code itself, which has too many
"loop-holes".

Actually, cutting the corporate tax rate significantly would do wonders for
our ailing economy. When rates are lower, revenues are higher because when
taxes are go beneath a certain threshold it is more costly to employ tax
lawyers to make sure all potential loop-holes are used, than to just pay the
tax!

Also, lower corporate tax rates make for a more business-friendly
environment, stimulating growth (and hence hiring).

But by far the largest source of waste, fraud and abuse is military
spending. Trillions are spent fighting pre-emptive wars of aggression,
policing the world and nation-building overseas, while leaving a weakened
defense capacity at home.
