Budget Cuts: Democrats and Republicans


As a Democrat I believe that we should reform entitlements to ensure that these programs are sustainable and that they don't go away.  I believe that we should continue the Obama health care plan and to make changes to it in order to make it better than what it currently is.  I also believe that it is essential to reform education and to make sure the money that is being spent is going to pay educators better and to insure that the schools have the technology and supplies to be successful.  Welfare could use some more reforms as well because we need programs that force people to either get a job or to enter college or some vocational or trade school to further their education in order to get a better job.  And finally I believe that the Defense budget could be slashed but we would need to figure out what we need to protect ourselves and our interests in the 21st century.  R&D is important but it shouldn't be a blank check.  What do you think?  Agree?  Disagree?  Let me know?  Click on comment below to post!
