No, it didn't when it was proposed.'Get the the moon' was a goal. If the specifics were included in that goal when it was made, we would not have achieved the goal.
Agreed, but "Balance the Budget" has been a goal for going on 16 years now. At some point, we have to start talking details. Getting to the Moon required revitalizing Education (New Math!), revitalizing research, building infrastructure, etc.
"Get to the Moon" also included details on what needed to be done, when it needed to be accomplished and how much it was going to cost.
....
Acrtually, it's a goal and one that is opposed by many, some even in this thread..... The TP goals of "Balance the Budget' without any details is just rhetoric that looks good on a protest sign
Taxes are the foundation of the Tea Party!Wanting "no federal income tax" has nothing to do with the Tea Party, so I have no idea what you are wanting to say.If the 'vast majority of Americans' pay no federal income tax; if taxation rates are just too tough for rich people to take anymore; what are all those non-tax paying middle class people doing at Tea Parties protesting high taxes?
Earth to NK: The Middle Class is being taxed to death.
The median family in the U.S. pays 38% of its income in taxes.

Again, why would anyone start talking details when we are not agreed on the goal? I'm really wondering that.
I'm not sure who's disagreeing on the goal here. I'd put down money that if you polled the public 85% of Americans, if not more, are in favor of the goal "Balance the Budget." They've been in favor of that for years.
Its time to talk details. Well past time in fact.

Frankly, the tax isn't necessarily the worst the Feds are doing.
The on going policy of simply printing more money to pay for overbudget spending is making Earnings After Taxes worth less every year.....
....and its only just begun.

In the 1950s, it was less than half that level.
What has changed? Government has gotten bigger.
Who told you that?Well, that's an idiotic methodology for problem solving.
It's not problem solving. It's problem solved.

Now I see what mentality we're dealing with, and why the Fed's can tax and spend whatever they wish.
All seem perfectly reasonable to me.

Where did these misfits, malcontents and miscreants get the idea they represent America?
At best they're a notable minority with naive and unsophisticated views based on misunderstanding of American culture. More likely, they're just dupes, sad, lost dimwits who just aren't smart enough to realize they're not smart enough to think for themselves.
ANYTHING is on the table that will get us to OUR goal. That's the beauty of not listing any single solution; it leaves more solutions as avenues.I'm not sure who's disagreeing on the goal here. I'd put down money that if you polled the public 85% of Americans, if not more, are in favor of the goal "Balance the Budget." They've been in favor of that for years.

What and how. For example, is defense spending on the table when we talk tax cuts?

You got that right. The spending and debt binge currently underway is going to result in huge devaluation at some point. It's going to be ugly.

Everything needs to be placed into context
What did we pay then....what do we pay now?
What did we receive then....what do we receive now?
