Some of the proposals have included allowing opting out of SSI(which would be more than a large cut)(Pres. Bush), to elimination of foreign aid (Sen. Paul), closing foreign military bases(Con Paul), complete elimination of entire federal departments(energy and education)(many over the year), and elimination of the rural electrification act(multiple), or even federal funding for planned parenthood and the national endowment for the arts(many). Just today they forced a vote to repeal the federal health care act and that alone could have cut trillions of dollars of spending over our lifetimes(all). Also many republicans want to slash not freeze as Obama wants domestic spending.</blockquote>
