Cut DoD Funding - Streamline it
The fact that DoD gets the majority of our funding in this country is sickening. We are the most advanced Military nation on earth yet we have no enemy to fight. Why are not downsizing and doing away with waste in the military? Cuts have to be made all across the board and so far this sacred cow is getting away with giving pay raises. Lets cut and start trimming more of this fat.

institute a LIGHTS OUT program.
In my building alone there are unused offices and rooms with lights on ALL day long. Why arne't these lights shut out? I'll walk by and flip them off only to return later in the day and they'll be burning brightly. Turn out the lights and start saving money. That's a very simple way to save the tax payers money.

There is no reason the government nor the tax payer to be providing tax breaks for any company. The amount of time spent on this at the IRS is astonomical. This should be eliminated and then use that revenue to pay down the national debt. Make corporations pay their share of taxes.

Stop Mowing when budgets decline
There is no need to continue mowing lawns on goverment grounds when their is a budget crunch. Let the grass grow and stop wasting money. We have our lawn mowed here even when the grass doesn't need it. They show up 2 times a week, mow and leave. I know they're under contract but allow for a more flexible contract to stop mowing when it doesn't need to be done.
