In this time of looming government debt and crumbling debt the tax dollars currently being used to supply the non security and lighting expenses at both the Capital and the White House is appalling.
Let Washington today work the same way the founding fathers did a few centuries ago when they crafted this great nation.
In the heat. On the Potomac.
They may be able to sweat out compromises like our founding fathers did and start working for their electorates again.
The money saved by these cuts could be directly put towards maintenance of the DC Beltway and Reagan International and Dulles airports, among any of a number of jobs in all the 50 states.
Congress would not be alone the expenditures cuts would also extend to the President who I'm sure would gladly work in the heat.
