Support belt tighteners

I totally support the efforts of any and all politicians who have the courage and stamina to put up with what is abuse for their efforts to positively support the limits on spending and limits on taxes in our nation. It can’t be an easy endeavor, with the media apparently supporting increased taxes and increased spending.

The reality is that we cannot continue on these irresponsible pathways we have traveled in the past. It is time to step up for what is right and get some control. Lack of jobs, unemployment rates, home foreclosures and other travesties are not going to be corrected by continuing to overspend. We American people are expected to tighten our belts and live within our means (or less). Our government should do no less, particularly since it is the American people who are paying for it.

We need fiscal management. Stop wasting money on such things as the recent disclosure of our contributing millions to terrorists by irresponsible oversight of where we send our money. Thank you for your efforts, those of you who are endeavoring to correct this abomination.
