Fiscal Commission Co-Chairs Simpson And Bowles Release Eye-Popping Recommendations

This is a good start ...... but where are the following good ideas....?

• Abolish the Department of Education
• Abolish the Department of Energy
• REDUCE all current federal employee salaries by 10% and freeze ALL increases (not just the COLA increases Obama has gratuitously just done)
• Hire all NEW federal employees at salaries equivalent to their civilian counterparts and limit total annual increases to an amount equal to Consumer Price Index.

and those are just for starters ............................
