Maybe if Congress cut down on some "Entitlements" and Foreign Aid we could afford to pay our bills without adding new taxes on something that's already been made illegal.

Foriegn aid reduces terrorism and war. which are expensive.  As for entitlements, depends on what you mean.

I would not cut healthcare, but I would cut out some benefits that dont make sense like the Social security cap.
