What would you cut from the federal budget?

Asked by Michael (2685points) January 28th, 2010

This year’s budget deficit is going to be around $1.4 trillion. Even though I believe that running deficits during a recession and incipient recovery is the right thing to do, I also believe that we can’t run deficits of this size forever. So, how do we get that deficit down?

I’m especially interested to hear from people who believe that we should not raise taxes to close that gap. What exactly would you cut from the budget?

Please be specific.
