Please reform the tax code. Stop loopholes and make everyone pay taxes. I mean everyone. Repeal Obamacare, it is way to expensive. Reign in the EPA and National Labor Relations Board. Most of all please make Obama a one term president. Thank you.

Fiscal Responsibility
John Gruber Posted 8 months ago
All we hear is that we need to cut spending on entitlements. Why not start with cuts to congress benefits. Several examples are why should Nancy P. have the use of a Air Force jet to go back and forth between DC and Cal. Why should the taxpayers pay for your retirement. I beleive that if congress was on an even keel with the taxpayers all of our problems would be solved.
In the privet sector when one company takes over another staff ends up being reduced but in Washington when departments are combined more people are hired and nobody knows what the mission statement is for that new depart.

Get rid of the department of energy and the department of education. Return the power to the states where it belongs! Also, rein in the EPA......give me a break, now they want to regulate dust? Would they rather people starve than to have farmers stirring up some dust to grow food? The people making these regulations need to get out and live in the real world for a while.

When are you people going to impeach Obama and centure Harry Reid? They're the cause of the economy and job market going belly up! Obama's first stimulus failed, now, under the name "jobs bill", he plans on wasting another $400 million of the taxpayers money.

We the people are DESPERATE for some common sense in Washington. Your first order of business should be to cut EVERY department/program by a certain percentage (same for all). If the people in charge of those programs and departments can't find waste and set priorities for the success of the funds under their care, then fire them and find someone who can.
Second order of business needs to be the elimination of all ear marks that are currently on the book.s
Third...take a good look at the issues Eric Canter has brought to the floor and vote ALL of those out!

Why does the liberal media get away with stating there are Federal wage FREEZES in place? This is incorrect. The step-up raises continue. First step: Cut all budgets in each dept of the government by 5%. Two: Stop ALL incremental raises in the govt sector. Wildly unpopular but better than slashing Medicare and Social Security is step 3: Do away with the mortgage deduction. Step 4: Require those receiving welfare/food stamps to perform a needed job in order to receive the benefits. Likewise, mandatory random drug testing. Step 5: Stop the school lunch program. It is saturated with fraud!

When are we going to let oil companies drill for oil in our own country? It is absolutely crazy to continue to pay for foreign oil! Ease the regulations and dismantle the EPA. Somebody needs to be in charge and quit being such a wimp!!
