Reducing wages and benefits for Government Officials in Congress and the Senate. This would help the deficit, as well as, make it clear to these 'government officials' WE PAY THEIR WAY ! And since they are really not doing the jobs we hired them for....they do not deserve the benefits they're receiving. Let's put government officials on the same level as the people they are SUPPOSED to be representing...NO 'extra benefits' ..no, excused from paying their kid's Student loans, NO Health Benefits unless THEY'RE paying for them,,,especially, AFTER they are 'out of office' ... Then we'll see how much of the 1% THEY want to represent !

Corporate welfare is any government spending program that provides unique benefits or advantages to specific companies or industries. Billions of dollars in corporate welfare are given in the form of subsidies, tax discounts, payroll rebates, cash grants, training funds, low-cost loans and leases, free buildings and free land and avoidance of costs of environmental health and safety. Most of this “aid” is given without public knowledge. Examples include the USDA giving $100 million taxpayer dollars yearly to exporters of food and other agricultural products to market their products overseas e.g. Sunkist, Dole, Gallo, Sunsweet; the Department of Commerce ‘s Advanced Tech Program giving $200 million taxpayer dollars anually in research grants to some of the nation's largest high-tech companies; those grants allow private companies to use taxpayer dollars to help them develop and bring to market profitable new products and the Export-Import Bank using $700 million taxpayer dollars/ year to provide subsidized financing to foreign purchasers of U.S. goods.

I live next door to a home that has been abandoned for several years. My church serves meals to homeless people who sleep in their cars or outdoors.

We want our government to know that us hardworking , tax paying citizens, are fed up with paying for people to use our money for supporting thier drug habits. We have to go to jobs where we are not allowed to use drugs. Some of us are even tested ourselves. This country is in extream debt. If drug users were not recieving payments to use then im sure that would save billions of dollars a year that could be used for better things like teachers for our schools,social security,medicare, and maybe funding drug programs where the drug abusers could go to get clean and sober.

In response to the realignment of prisoners to the county jails. Sacramento County Sheriff Scott Jones has proposed a $100 million expansion to the County' Rio Cosumnes Correctional Center.

Realignment should be utilized to expand community program s and alternatives to incarceration not to build more cages.
