Highlights of Bush's 3 trillion dollar budget..

Budget highlights

# DEFICITS: The plan will claim deficits in the $400 billion range for this year and next

# DEFENSE: The Pentagon would get a $35 billion increase to $515 billion for core programs, about 7 percent, with war costs additional

# MEDICARE AND MEDICAID: The programs will see almost $200 billion in cuts over the next five years, about three times the savings proposed last year but rejected by Congress

# HEALTH: Health and Human Services Department funding would be cut by $2 billion, amounting to a 3 percent reduction

# HOMELAND SECURITY: Overall, the budget for homeland security programs will increase by almost 11 percent

Fuck the poor and sick, we got a military to fund. What has this country become???
