Stop giving special interest groups money

California is just about bankrupt. President Obama says we are out of money and special interest groups and steamrolling ahead with new programs that are going to cost trillions is still going on. We know for a fact that President Obama will need at least one trillion for healthcare. Who is going to pay for this if we are broke? Waxman and Markey are trying to push cap and trade on our society so that our companies will move overseas, causing yet more jobs to be lost and less money coming in, who will pay for this? I think that until our economy picks up and THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES are back to work without having a huge tax burden on their shoulders that all interest groups, new programs, etc...need to come to a halt so that we can recover. If the billions upon billions of that money went to actually helping people who are down on their luck and states who are about bankrupt this is better than strapping every taxpayer with these ridiculous government programs that should not be happening anyway.
