Floor Speech on Debt Ceiling July 19 2011 (by CongressmanRonPaul)
Woo hoo! $2bn out of $1.3T (annually). Here’s my deficit reduction (elimination) plan:
- Eliminate social security except for the poor or disabled
- Eliminate medicare except for the poor or disabled
- Remove military from all first world countries (Germany, South Korea, Japan)
- Poor is defined as income less than $50 / day and net worth of less than $25,000.
And those aren’t even controversial. I’d be in favor of much deeper cuts to almost all federal programs, of course.
