Obama's Budget  vs. Republicans Proposal

Most have to admit the liberal Democrat budget spends too much. Under this budget the federal government's spending will equal 28.5% of the economy, the highest level since World War II. The budget contains $1.9 trillion in tax increases, including a national energy tax that will cost every household up to $3,128 and increased energy bills.

The Liberal Democrat budget explodes the national debt with $9.3 trillion in deficit spending over the next 10 years. Foreign purchasers of our debt are starting to balk. The Federal Reserve is printing money to pay for these commitments. That is hardly a new era of responsibility.

Who are the recipients of such largesse? The answer is international organizations and foreign aid recipients, including millions for reconstruction in the Hamas controlled Gaza Strip, Labor union bosses participating in a new "green jobs" program, The National Endowment for the Arts, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, AmeriCorps, Title X. Family Planning, and a host of spending programs that will do nothing to help our economy recover.

Even community organizers such as ACORN will receive your tax dollars for performing "neighborhood stabilization." Hundreds of programs deemed ineffective are funded, despite promises from the liberal Obama to go "line by line" to examine each program's effectiveness.

The Republican proposal curbs spending. The proposal limits the Federal Budget from growing faster than family budgets. Instead of recklessly borrowing and spending money on wasteful programs under the guise of "stimulus" and "investments," the Republican proposal seeks to ensure that the federal budget cannot grow faster than the family’s ability to pay the bill.

The Republican proposal will secure our nation's major entitlements, by in acting, common-sense reforms in weeding out waste, fraud, and abuse. The Republicans propose to undo the recent reckless and wasteful liberal Democrat spending binge included in the so-called "stimulus" and omnibus bills.

Further the Republican proposal would cut overall nondefense spending by reforming or eliminating a host of wasteful programs deemed ineffective by various government entities in addition Republicans would fully fund our ongoing commitments overseas while devoting the entirety of any savings from fighting to deficit reduction, rebuilding our military, and funding our commitment to our veterans.

Instead of raising taxes on all Americans in the midst of a recession, the Republican proposal seeks to reduce the tax burden on working families and small businesses, in order to create jobs and unblock private capital.

The Republican proposal instead of taxing all energy users with a new national energy tax that will cost up to $3,128 per household, will work for energy independence with increased development of all our natural resources, including renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar.

Instead of nationalizing our financial system and heaping trillions of dollars of debt on future generations, Republicans want to protect taxpayers and provide a transparent recovery process that does not favor those that have made unsound business decisions. Republicans will ensure that this financial crisis can never occur again.
