Replace Baseline Budgeting with Zero Baseline Budget.

Baseline budgeting assumes that every government agency needs to increase their budget 3-10% each year regardless of the amount of money actually needed by that agency the previous year. These spending increases are AUTOMATIC! An increase in spending is expected while there is nothing to reward fiscal responsibility. The process encourages waste and abuse by each government agency. It also allows our federal officials to spew propaganda to the American people by falsely claiming that budgets are being ‘cut’ when, in reality, they are simply not being raised or being raised by a smaller amount than originally projected.
