cut government expenses. The President needs to receive a salary only for time served.

The massive expense of paying a President a lifetime salary for four years of actual work has overburdened the U.S. and is not a good example for the taxpayers of the U.S. who pay for this ridiculous expense. Also, reduce all government salaries 10% and reduce benefits until the Government repairs itself and the economy is in the black. The rest of the U.S. is expected to economize--our government needs to do the same immediately. Obama and our representatives in government need to show "Good Faith."
