There’s a budget proposal from the President, one from Rep Paul Ryan (R WI) and the House of Representatives, a third from the House Progressive Caucus, and several permutations from the four GOP Presidential nomination contenders as well.
But where’s yours?
Haven’t gotten around to it? That’s no excuse – especially now that you can build your own version of the Federal budget here.. Takes just a couple minutes, and you’ll actually know a lot more about where dollars go, and where they come from when you’re done.
Want to keep those taxes low and slash entitlements? Get to it! Time to increase spending on science? You go, girl/boy! Angry that there’s not enough for NASA? Raise their budget to the moon! Want more dollars for border security? You’re the boss!
Best of all, you don’t even have to deal with lobbyists, the media, bloggers (aren’t they the worst?!), arguments among your own advisers, nasty comments from the opposition, or SuperPACs using your own words against you…
Seriously, a pretty enlightening experience for all.
