The Trump budget proposal calls for significant cuts in non-defense spending and cutting the number of federal employees. If this budget is adopted, it will be a historic first. Usually, federal employee levels increase, never decrease. Here are some of the details from the Washington (Com)Post<\/a>:<\/p>\n President Trump\u2019s budget proposal this week would shake the federal government to its core if enacted, culling back numerous programs and expediting a historic contraction of the federal workforce. This would be the first time the government has executed cuts of this magnitude \u2014 and all at once \u2014 since the draw down following World War II, economists and budget analysts said. <\/b><\/p>\n The post war draw down was due to millions of soldiers being discharged. Here, we\u2019re talking federal paper shufflers, busybodies and layabouts…err workers.<\/p>\n The spending budget Trump is set to release Thursday will offer the clearest snapshot of his vision for the size and role of government. Aides say that the president sees a new Washington emerging from the budget process, one that prioritizes the military and homeland security while slashing many other areas, including housing, foreign assistance, environmental programs, public broadcasting and research. Simply put, government would be smaller and less involved in regulating life in America, with private companies and states playing a much bigger role.<\/b><\/p>\n It sounds to me that President Trump wants to restore the United States Government\u2019s original role, handling a few things mandated by the Constitution. Over the last century, really starting under Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the federal government has increased in size to the point where it is a direct threat to the liberty of the American people, not to mention putting a massive hole in the economy.<\/p>\n The cuts Trump plans to propose this week are also expected to lead to layoffs among federal workers, changes that would be felt sharply in the Washington area. <\/b><\/p>\n According to an economic analysis by Mark Zandi, chief economist for Moody\u2019s Analytics, the reductions outlined so far by Trump\u2019s advisers would reduce employment in the region by 1.8 percent and personal income by 3.5 percent, and lower home prices by 1.9 percent. <\/b><\/p>\n If the federal government exercises that large a financial influence in the area, then that is proof that it\u2019s far to large.<\/p>\n Still, budget experts said it was unclear what the precise impact on many agencies might be because the departments could choose to implement reductions in a variety of ways. <\/b><\/p>\n And how would they choose to implement any cuts? Would they be using the method they\u2019ve been using when Congress calls them in for oversight? By ignoring them? I don\u2019t think that\u2019s going to work this time. Most of the people President Trump is putting in place to run these agencies have no problem burning them to the ground.<\/p>\n The cuts cannot take effect unless they are authorized by Congress, which could prove difficult. Lawmakers routinely rebuffed budget requests from President Barack Obama, leading instead to protracted negotiations between both sides. <\/b><\/p>\n I see the Washington (Com)Post isn\u2019t being fully accurate with regards to Der Fubar\u2019s budget proposals. Obama\u2019s budgets were designed to bankrupt the United States and create the socialist wonderland similar to the one currently underway in Venezuela. King Putt\u2019s budgets were one of the few things both sides agreed on. They were a massive joke. This time, the Republicans control both sides of Congress, and there is general agreement, at least with the GOP, on the need to reduce the bureaucracy.<\/p>\n Already, Democrats have vowed to fight Trump\u2019s proposals, and some Republicans have also expressed unease at the size of the reductions. <\/b><\/p>\n The Democrats see this as a direct assault on their money. (The bureaucrats vote 90+ percent Democrat and are paying unions to funnel money into the Democrat party) The Republicans who are \u201cNervous\u201d are nothing more then the RINO GOP(e) elites who are members of the Beltway Uniparty. (John McCain, Lindsey Graham, etc) They\u2019re basically Democrats and need to be crushed.<\/p>\n Trump and his advisers have said that they believe the federal workforce is too big, and that the federal government spends \u2014 and wastes \u2014 too much money. They have said that Washington \u2014 the federal workers and contractors, among others \u2014 has benefited from government largesse while many other Americans have suffered. Federal spending, they have argued, crowds the private sector and piles regulations and bureaucracy onto companies. <\/b><\/p>\n President Trump is correct of course. These bureaucracies exist solely for the purpose of increasing their size and power. Most of what they do is meaningless at best, and flat out unconstitutional at worst. Recall the last time we had a government shutdown. Something like 90% of the federal workforce was deemed \u201cNonessential\u201d and didn\u2019t come in. 90 percent? If we cut half that number we would be off to a good start.<\/p>\n Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), who said that his state would be hit particularly hard by Trump\u2019s proposed cuts, said that his party plans to remain locked in opposition to the disproportionate changes Trump will advance. <\/b><\/p>\n \u201cThe notion of bulking up defense but slashing everything else, that\u2019s not going to find any votes on the Democratic side,\u201d Kaine said in an interview. <\/b><\/p>\n As if anyone cares what that dropout from Creepy Clown school has to say.<\/p>\n Neither Trump nor any of his top advisers have assembled a White House budget before, posing a challenge for his team in how it sells it and for lawmakers from both parties as they decide whether to negotiate or block his proposed changes. <\/b><\/p>\n And this is a bad thing? President Trump and company might actually submit a budget that actually is based in reality instead of another plan to rape the wallets of the taxpayers.<\/p>\n Mick Mulvaney, head of the Office of Management and Budget, said on Hugh Hewitt\u2019s radio program last week that it was important for the administration to change how Washington thinks. <\/b><\/p>\n \u201cWe don\u2019t solve problems by simply throwing money at them,\u201d he said. <\/b><\/p>\n And in the minds of the Beltway Uniparty, that\u2019s heresy! How dare this Mulvaney person say that problems can\u2019t be solved by throwing huge sums of taxpayer funds at it! And therein is the source of the problem. The Beltway Uniparty is made of of people who, in most cases, have never done an honest days work in their lives.<\/p>\n Like the ancient pharaohs of Egypt, and their pyramids, and the kings of Europe with their castles, today\u2019s elected officials consider their importance to be a measure of how much money they can spend. (See Robert Byrd) Well boys and girls, the other people\u2019s money has run out and the people are now demanding that they receive value for their hard earned, (and easily taxed), cash. Go ahead, fight to spend money we don\u2019t have and see what happens in 2018.<\/p>\n Thatisall<\/p>\n ~The Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n [yasr_visitor_votes size=”large”]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Good day all.
