Stop raiding the social security fund.

What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?

I would start with eliminate the Congressional hush fund, end money for abortion providers and cut foreign aid.

If someone serves in the military and we should consider people who are public servants. I will work with Congress to make higher education more affordable.
