in another thread, this was posted [color edited to address the topic of this thread]:
my recollection is, carley fiorina was the first candidate to publicly object to baseline budgeting
many have echoed her objection
but i have seen no explanation why baseline budgeting is a government practice that needs to be ended
and neither have i seen anyone identify what budgeting method should replace baseline budgeting ... assuming that we all recognize that good government does necessitate a budgeting system
so, if you oppose baseline budgeting, share with us why it is a practice to be abandoned
and please also tell us what budgeting system should be used to replace it ... and why
You're also short on details. You come off as liking him because you're desperate and want to have your own personal status back again. Which I get.
In the interest of full honesty, as much as I detest the man and his candidacy, there are issues that even I agree with him. He says he wants to eliminate baseline budgeting, for example. *I* want to eliminate baseline budgeting. Might seem like a step toward The Donald, right? Even if he could eliminate baseline budgeting, would that alone be worth alienating our staunchest allies? The domino effect from that would be huge. No, it wouldn't be worth it.
