Seven Rules for Cutting Government Spending

Stephen Moore has an excellent article one Human Events Online about federal spending.

I'll ask the question once again that I keep asking: What is the point of having a Republican president if he is going to spend like a Democrat?

The government has no business propping up businesses. If businesses cannot be profitable on their own, they should fold and free up resources for companies that are providing services that people actually want.
