Hows that bank bailout going

[IMaDick]

Here's my question, I guess. What, if anything, would YOU (and I mean the Mock "collective you") be willing to give up (monetarily) to balance the budget/reduce the deficit? Anything? Changes to medicare/social security? Changes to tricare? Repeal of the Bush tax cuts for the "wealthiest" Americans? Reducing gas company subsidies? Limiting the mortgage interest deductions? Adding to the gas tax?

It's really easy to bitch about the state of the economy and how we're "spending beyond our means" but funny, no one seems willing to make the cuts (or add the revenue) that's needed to fix things (especially when it hurts their little private pocketbooks).

Fix the economy!!! But don't tax me more, touch defense spending or mess with my current or future entitlements.

you make the assumption that everyone gets some form of entitlement, I can tell you that is just not so.

There is no reason to tax more, stop looking for new ways to spend money on credit.

It's truely that fucking simple.
