Debt Limit Solution: I can propose cutting the budget by 50%! Let's just go back to 2001-Clinton's last budget submission. 2012 Budget by Obama 3.7T. 2001 Budget by Clinton 1.9T. Anyone want to argue that the govt. wasn't too big then? I don't remember Grandma or people dying in the streets and the sky falling then. For R's out there, please notice that Bush increased the budget from 2.0 > 3.0T his 2 terms.
