subject: Government waste

The current banking credit challenges have been well covered in the 
press (although the cause and solutions have been covered poorly) and 
the corresponding impacts to some sectors of our economy.  We've also 
heard about how the private sector is dealing with this by trimming 
their workforces, reducing expenses and prioritizing their cash 
expenses.  

My question is what is our government doing ?  Why isn't the federal 
goverment looking at layoffs, cost reductions and the like ?  Why must 
the evil private sector, that the Democrats loathe, bear the burden like 
they already do with burdensome taxation ?  I see a few local 
governments cutting some expenses and others, like Detroit, holding 
their hands out for the federal government to print some more money and 
bail them out for being stupid.  I don't see the federal government 
freezing budgets, cutting staf etc.  

We should be demanding it.
