Dance Dance Social Uprising
Yesterday, the Bush administration released the federal budget proposal, with the intent to slice the budget in half over the next term. I hope to summarize what I feel to be the most important points within the document.
-The budget proposal assumes that all governmental discretionary spending (from papercilps to space shuttles) will freeze for the next five years.
-The budget proposal does not include any spending on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan for 2006. There has already been $26 billion spent on these wars, and this is only speculation, but there will probably be more.
-The budget proposal cuts billions of dollars from several government-funded programs, including popular farming subsidaries, health care for the poor, and of course, the low-priority National Literacy Fund.
-The budget proposal suggests that, based on date of birth, one sixth of all children below the age of 12 recieve membership in a relatively new government program known only as "The Soylent Project". This is assumed to be a vocational training institute of some sort.
-The budget proposal proclaims, in Subsection 27 Article IX Clause 6, that President Bush is heretofore recognized as the "Grand Czar of the Empire of America". Details are unknown, but an increase in Bush's executive power is expected.
Mmmm, I love going down the shitter.
