Why reduce federal employee pay? You do realize that most federal employees are middle class right? That will do wonders for the economy.
Let me get this straight, you don't want to reduce spending on making more ships or weapon programs, but you want to screw the veterans over on their health care plans?...lol REALLY??? Do you own stock in Lockheed Martin? It would appear so.
I assume you didn't mark anything in the "taxes" section because of your "Fair Tax" stance.
You are a true republican to the hilt.

People have been paying into SS their whole working life, and now you want to reduce that to a mere couple of years? Wow. Advice, never run for office and use that as your platform. Even the Repubs would laugh you out.
