    Seems to me (none / 0) (#2)

    That as my Congressman I remember Rep Upton voting for TARP, the prescription drug entitlement for Medicare Part B. Also the auto company bailouts and a hell of a lot more.
    All that spending either was a gigantic waste of money or it was designed to increase bennies to the entitled class.
    If Sir, you really want to do something about spending might I as a humble citizen of this Republic suggest the following.
    A bill introduced and passed that would cut salaries of all members of the Congress and their staffs by 10%. These cuts would be for both the House and Senate. Further the cut would apply to our spendthrift President, all members of the Executive branch as well as the Judicial branch. In other words a 10% cut in wages and benifits for all Federal employees with the exception of military and the law enforcement arms of government. Further a 15% reduction in all branches, agencies and departments of employee's. If private industry has to cut jobs to balance the books and meet obligations government shouldn't be exempt from the same treatment. Once all of the above has been accomplished and the political class proves their desire to really make reforms then we can talk about other things.
    Additionally total repeal with NO replacement of Obama Care AKA MediKill. Introduction of a Constitutional Amendment that would require a balanced budgit for the US Government. And end to discretionary spending and ear marks. Pssage of a line item veto for the President. Do this and get it done and maybe we can talk. Until save your breath Mr. Upton. As a wise sage once observed, "Actions speak louder then words."
