The Federal Budget is 6.9 Trillion. President Donald Trump and his billionaire cohorts want to cut the spending. I have some ideas.

            Since the President is a multi-billionaire, or at least he says so, why am I paying for his life in The White House and his salary? He could easily afford to pay for the staff and food. He should pick up the tab for all those parties he likes to throw to impress himself. He always paid for his own plane and crew so he shouldn’t he pay for Air Force One and its flight crew? He should pay for his own medical costs like the people who voted for him must do. He had his own guards before he got Secret Service people for the rest of his life so shouldn’t he pay for them? As he keeps moving around we have to pay for all the security facilities and guards. I bet all that would save the tax payer over a billion dollars.

            Elon Musk doesn’t need to poke around Washington D.C. to cut money. He could simply tell NASA to cut all funding and people having to do with sending Astronauts to Mars. The human body can’t live in a zero gravity for very long and definitely not the years it will take to get to Mars, stay for a while, and get back. Hollywood isn’t making factual movies. That would save 100 to 500 Billion for each trip, plus a billion per ton in equipment and supplies.

            He will probably want to cut the auditors at the IRS so they can’t check his huge income statement. His and Trump’s firing those people checking their statements will mean they will get away from having to pay tens to hundreds of millions less. Remember President Trump’s first term and fights with the IRS. Will he and Musk get to pick the Auditors?
