I would only support cutting 2.5 trillion if it only touched the military and corporate subsidies , tax breaks, and "tax expenditures."

The interesting thing is years ago - the word was deregulating business is good for the consumer - but what has happen is that the consumer is spending more and often gets crappy services while the company has made record profits.

Imagine this.

You just lost your job.
But no worries, you've got credit cards, and the Chinese keep sending you new ones daily.
Pay your rent with the "plastic"; no one will ever expect you to pay.

“But what's this? A statement? Oh...I have to make this payment?”

"Can I put that on this other card?"
