Finances and the budget are always hot button topics in U. S. politics. With an estimate of over 1 trillion dollars in deficit
this year and more than 21 trillion dollars in national debt total, something must be done to address the growing
financial issues of the nation. For your paper, suppose that you are a member of the national Congress and you wish to
propose budget cuts that you believe might help to balance the budget and address the following:
- List 4 policy areas that you would introduce cuts to as a member of Congress. (back up with cited evidence)
- Identify 4 special interest groups within you chosen areas of policy above that you believe will oppose your
proposed cuts and 1 reason why each group might support them. (back up with cited evidence) - Discuss 1 potential impact each of your proposed cuts could have on the operation of the government or the
country as a whole. (can include opinion, but should have cited evidence in support)
