The 2011 federal budget generally hits education, labor, and health care. I know that each of the above has its role but at this rate we won't have any specialists in any field. Chemical engineers have vanished while Indian colleges are investing massively in their future and this is only one example. What's an average teenager to do ? Besides social media ?... how are they supposed to get a master in leadership when education as we know it hit rock bottom years back.

Biggest loser is the teacher who gets a 50 percent salary cut and the student still fails because of lack of discipline by poor parenting.. Cut spending on the backs of the american working class, and we will see the biggest crises and failure in american history.. Leave the workers pay alone, Raise taxes on the wealthy, tighten the gap between wealthy and poor, regulate prices at the pump, force oil ceo’s to take salay cuts.. PERIOD

Sorry, can’t buy your simplistic view. IF you want to make a real cut, cut medicare, medicaid and social security. Everything else is chump change. You cannot cut to a balanced budget, there is too much money tied up in entitlements such as SS, MC and MA. The Bush Tax cuts added 7T to the deficit. This deficit was created by conservatives, and conservatives alone.

Mythology is an interesting topic.

Do the American tax dollars pay oil companies? That was the claim. So the failure to tax is equated with giving tax dollars. So long as people buy that fiction, no real conversation concerning reality is possible.

Notice the class warfare, the big corrupt oil companies are afraid to tell us the truth. I have not lived very long, just a little over sixty years, but during my lifetime, starting in WWII, governments have been the source of evil in our world. Mr. Hitler killed millions, Mr. Stalin killed millions, and Mr. Mao killed millions. The Taliban turned a public sports arena into a public hanging venue. We had ethic cleansing. Compared to the capacity of government to enslave and murder folks, corporations are milk-toast. Yet again and again folks advocating bigger more powerful and intrusive government, always for a "good" cause, keep pointing the finger at corporations.

Yes, Mythology is an interesting topic.
