47. It's not a nonsensical statement, you just don't understand it
that's fine, but just ask in the future.

What that means is that if we're looking at spending to cut so we can keep other programs any single line of the budget will not be sufficient to do so. The argument of "it's only a few million here and there" sounds sensible on the surface but what happens when you add up a few million several thousand times or more? Now it's real money huh?

"Nice way to avoid addressing the substance of what I posted."

The substance of what you posted was essentially we have money to kill so who cares how we spend it. I disagree with that.
