The TEA (Taxed Enough Already) protesters were out in force again on Interstate 5 overpasses Sunday, June 14.

I believe we can all agree that nobody likes to pay taxes. I'm wondering which government programs they would like cut? Options include law enforcement, roads, education, 911 services, fire protection, public health, the military, Social Security or possibly the new prescription drug benefit?

President Bush promised that he would cut wasteful spending so that pot is empty.

The other option is borrow the money and increase the national debt. At their next protest instead of waving American flags perhaps they could carry informative posters with specific proposals such as "reduce law enforcement" or "slash Social Security."
