Try this interactive feature from the NYTimes on balancing the US budget by setting priorities and choosing what to cut from the budget, and which taxes to raise. I did it without a problem, by adhering to the following dicta: 1) screw the rich; 2) screw the big corporations; and 3) screw the industrial/military complex. And I'm for that 95% of the US population below the wealthy class; reverting tax rates to Clinton-era levels (Kennedy era would be better); keeping Social Security and Medicare afloat; and keeping tax cuts and breaks for the middle class and those below. As one of my favorite bumperstickers says:
EAT THE RICH
