Today in history

COMMENTS I’VE POSTED

1. Posted to Facebook —

   Actually cut spending below last year’s levels — NO MORE of this “we’re just slowing the growth of government” stuff.

   Actually balance the budget. No more deficit spending PERIOD. If that means someone’s pet project or welfare state contract doesn’t get funded, oh well, deal with it.

   Stop issuing T-bills and municipal bonds, even if the budgets are balanced.

   NO MORE treating gun owners as a political soccer ball, to be kicked around when it’s more convenient.
