Exactly! The spin by politicians is we can't achieve a balanced budget because we don't have enough money when in reality they spend too much. It's that simple....
They can go through and gut a lot of wasteful spending but they won't. Sure they appear to do it but my money is on the fact that they don't. The "party" might not like it if they re-nig on spending or their parties stance on taxes.
It's a political mess and it will take some strong folks to stand up and make tough decisions.
