When it comes to economic and federal spending, I'm more Republican and
Democrat; very conservative and believe in fiscal restraint. I feel
like government should provide for the services that can't be
economically handled at any lower level, whether it be governmental,
public, or private. I believe in a balance USA federal budget. If
taxes are to be lower, then spending should be reduced on the other side
of the equation to keep the equation balanced, for example. The
solution to the problem is for the American people to decide exactly
what they want from the federal government, and fund those services on a
pay as you go basis, eliminating deficit spending and borrowing from US
citizens or other countries like China by issue US treasury bonds or
other forms of debt instruments.
Although the Bush Administration is Republican, and calls itself
conservative or "Passionate Conservative", their action have been just
the opposite. The Bush Administration is not conservative; their
neo-conservative. Below is a definition of the prefix neo:
neo
adj : (used as a combining form) recent or new; "`neo' is a
combining form in words like `neocolonialism'"
