Restfully: We don’t have a taxation problem, we have a spending problem.

No budget since 1996 or 97, only CRs.

Balanced Budget Amendment cast in stone.

Amendment requiring “clean” bills, no pork riders.

Line item veto. .

Term limits

Congress is as addicted to spending as a junkie is to heroin. They consider it as the divine right of kings was once considered.

Why? Lifers stay for life and grow wealthy gorging at the public trough.

In the end, we have allowed it. Unengaged and uninformed voters are to blame.
