You Cut: You Vote to decide Spending Cuts
By Soumitra Mondal, Gaea News NetworkThursday, May 13, 2010
New York (GaeaTimes.com) The common Americans can now vote for what spending cuts they want to see Congress adopt. A new website called ‘You Cut’ is started by the Congressional Republicans. The concept is headed by Minority Whip Eric Cantor and it would be very interesting to see how the idea takes off. There are now five different spending programs offered each week for the chopping block. The program that has earned most votes from the public will be offered up for a Vote in Congress the next week.
According to a report published in the Ripley Report, this system is great for many a reasons though it will get ridiculed by the left. They think that this will give the general public a control on a very important issue spending. Though this is not a method through which we can directly control the spending but this may at least be our channel to voice our grievances against the Tea Parties.
President Obama has created a deficit reduction committee but it may be assumed that they won’t come out with a recommendation of spending cuts. When they churn out anything constructive in December; it might point more in the way of taxation.
If you think you want to give it a try, visit You Cut website and only give them your e-mail address. This is all you need to be eligible to vote for the program, no more personal information is asked for. You can also vote more than once. There are also options of voting via online or via text.

MY WHOLE THING ABOUT THE U.S. DOLLAR IS THAT CONGRESS HAS BEEN SCREWING UP FOR YEARS AND ALL THE OLD GUYS DIVVY UP THE PIE AND THEN BORROW EXTRA. THE SOLUTION IS FAR OFF AND NOT ONE LEARNS FROM HISTORY IT SEEMS, SO TO CONGRESS STOP TOUCHING THE VOTERS THAT ARE NOT CONNECTED TO GOVERNMENT. AND DON’T TOUCH POLICE, OR FIREMEN, OR THE MILITARY PAY CHECKS, LEAVE MEDICARE AND MEDICAID IN TACT FOR CATISTROPHIC ILLNESSES. FORGET ABOUT PREVENTION BECAUSE MOST WILL TELL YOU THEY ARE LISTENING BUT THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW ANY RULES. SOCIAL SECURITY WAS PAID INTO AND IS A “RIGHT” START A NEW PROGRAM FOR THE NEW ENTRANTS INTO SOCIAL SECURITY AS THEY WILL UNDERSTAND AS I WOULD HAVE IF I WERE YOUNG. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO DO IS ALL CONGRESSMEN AND ALL GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT LEADERS NEED TO HAND OUT MILLIONS OF PINK SLIPS TO ALL NON-ESSENTIAL PERSONEL THAT REALLY INVOLVES ABOUT 1/2 OF ALL OFFICES. THAT IS WHAT REALLY NEEDS TO HAPPEN. PUT THOSE PEOPLE WHO REALLY ONLY GET PAID AND DO NOTHING INTO THE UNEMPLOYMENT LINES AS THE TEA PARTY WANTS AND ALL YOU CONGRESS “PEOPLE” NEVER EVER MENTION. YOU ALWAYS MENTION THE PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF GOVERNMENT POSITIONS WILLING TO SUFFER WITH CUTS AND THAT IS BULL. THE TEA PARTY WHICH I SUPPORT IS VERY CLEAR. LAYOFF GOVERNMENT PERSONEL UNTIL HALF ARE IN THE UNEMPLAYMENT LINE {THERE IT IS AND YOU STILL WON’T GET IT UNTIL YOU CONGRESSMENT ARE ALL LOOKING FOR FAVORS FROM INCUMBANTS.} I HOPE YOU GET IT SOON BECAUSE YOUR REALLY PISSING ORDINARY PEOPLE OFF. |
