Yes.
A $.10 per gallon gas tax. Diesel and jet fuel exempted.
A National Lottery
A Stamp Tax of $.05 per first class stamp.
A 5% reduction in military spending.
A Change in Medicare eligibility. All those 60 years or higher, will have to wait 6 months to receive their benefits at 65.5 years old. All those 50-60 years old will have to wait 1 year to receive their benefits at 66 years old. All those 40-50 years old, will have to wait 2 years, until they are 67 years old. 30-40 year old will have to wait 3 years to receive their benefits at 68 years old. This will all be off-set by improvements in medicine longevity.
Everyone forgets that our debt problem will go away in 25 years anyway. As the baby boomers begin to pass away, the reduced costs of Medicare will save the nations 100's of billions per year. And in 50 years, Medicare will be in surplus.

Although there are people who truly need food stamps and welfare, some other people use it just because they're too lazy to work. America spends billions of dollars on this, and if they weren't allowed to leech off of America anymore, the money could be used for more useful things.
