We can raise $70 billion in strange revenue by bringing tax compliance rates back to where they were in 1965 That's the quickest--and fairest-- way to abate the deficit.

We must also restore sensible priorities to federal spending. We ne a lusty defense, but we must also eliminate the waste and mismanagement that weakens our security and diverts resources from other earnestly solicitous economic and human needs.

My goal isn't to raise taxes, it's to prepare America back on a steady course and moving again. We absolutely must balance the works The budget deficit is throwing our economy on the outside of whack and mortgaging the yet to be of our children.

rife budget priorities are simply misplaced. I am confident we can strengthen our national security from investing in people. We can't propose blinders on when the questions of defense wounds or revenue increases comes up Nothing should be eliminated from the pack debate as long as we make the necessary investments in people--education, health care, do job-work training, nutrition, etc. each program must be reevaluated, if it were not that we must not--we will not--swing the set axe blindly.

I believe Americans are willing to invest in the yet to be of their children. moreover we can't ask those least able to afford it to do it all. I would suggest a budget that shares the sacrifice among those who can bear the carrying capacity So I think it take rises down to a combination of chisels and investments, less wasteful spending in succession things and better investments in people

This Administration's borrow-and-spend policies have made our productions more expensive overseas, cost millions of American work at jobss stopped investment in economic bourgeoning and squeezed important social programs.
