Mullen Says Pay, Benefit Cuts 'On the Table'

[trlcavscout]

Complete BS! They are the last people that should take cuts. Let's cut welfare and all the county and state programs that breed obese unemployed people. Cut pay from all the politicians and their bs spending. Quit giving money to everyother country in the world save America!

I hate to interject with the leftist hippie view, but maybe now, more than ever, would be the best time to legalize industrial hemp- I'm not saying make marijuana legal, I'm saying use hemp for other uses than for the THC... plenty of jobs would be created, new textile plants, construction, even clothing. It would boost the economy and really help us so we don't have to take $1/4 of a Trillion to balance the budget. And stop giving money to countries we have no vested interest in- sorry to say it, but if you can't afford to feed yourself and your family, you shouldn't try to feed your neighbor.
