Balance the federal budget without raising taxes

Carter supports a balanced federal budget and says Washington should live within its means. He favors cutting federal spending rather than raising taxes; he says the cuts he has supported would balance the budget and begin paying down the national debt within ten years.

Context: The page does not specify a new spending-cut plan or detail which programs would be affected.

In their own words

a responsible, balanced budget that preserves the economic opportunities, personal freedoms, and individual liberties of our children and grandchildren.
