 The IRS budget is being attacked with good reason. When you spend tax payer money on Star Trek “training” videos, excessive conference spending, and questionable bonuses to employees, your budget should be under scrutiny. Don’t forget - this is TAX PAYER MONEY they are spending on these things. Their budget is money that is coming from the TAX PAYERS in this country. [/quote]

Good point.  Listening to Gerry Connolly last night, you'd think that was the whole problem: money.  One website said that is going to be the platform for the Dems: more money for the IRS.

I would hope so -- the sequester has been a horrible policy.  I'd vote for more money for everything but defense, since their budget is already 5 times what it was pre 9/11.[/quote]

And, I would hope not.  I think there have been too many instances of government waste in the news of recent.  And, these are only the incidences that have made the news.  Personally, I think ALL dept. budgets should be frozen until the departments can demonstrate that measures have been taken to cut the waste and unaccounted spending.  Once again, the money the government is spending is TAX PAYER money.  It is so easy to misuse other people’s money.  [/quote]

Pretty sure that you wouldn't be voting for the democrats no matter what their platform is.  And yes, the VA problem is lack of resources.  No doctors want to work there because the compensation is so poor.

I would be in favor for making it much easier to fire federal employees.  But generally, the problem is insufficient resources not waste in my opinion.  That's why I don't vote the same way you do.  And putting your positions in allcaps isn't likely to change my opinions.[/quote]
