My problem with this speech was that while there were specifics to some extent - there seemed to be little real concrete specific means for achieving these goals. I really don't know how he will do these things: for example spending trillions and at the same time balancing the budget??? These items:


a. Identified 2 trillion dollars of savings in the budget

b. End Education programs that don't work

c. End payments to agribusiness

d. Eliminate no bid contracts (IRAQ)

e. Reform out defense budget – no cold

f. Waste and abuse in Medicaid

g. Fairness and balance tax codes – end breaks that ship jobs overseas.

h. End tax breaks for weathiest 2% of Americans

don't seem to make enough of a cut to get to a balanced budget to me!!!
