AMERICA IS GETTING A HAIRCUT: BIG CUTS IN FEDERAL SPENDING

BIG CUTS IN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump signed an Executive Order on Tuesday, essentially taking a chainsaw to the Federal government.  Behind him was Elon Musk and Musk's son.  

I do support these massive cuts to the federal government.  The federal government is over-bloated with money and American needs to stop their addiction to spending.  America has a spending crisis.  President Trump is the captain we need to guide this ship.

However, what I disagree with President Trump is that the cuts should be outsourced to Elon Musk.  Elon Musk should act as an advisor to President Trump on the cuts.  President Trump is making the cuts by Executive Order, making a run around Congress and their authority to provide checks and balances.

The fact is the government is over-bloated.  American needs to go on a diet and so do President Trump.  At least the country has its weight under control, President Trump not so much.  As always comments accepted.

Massive Cuts are coming
