Here's a Crazy Idea, Kids

I rather like Tigerhawk's thought as a way to start: 

... an across-the-board cut of some percentage in every single program, including entitlements. Leave no department or agency or federal program unscathed. That is "shared sacrifice," ... and it is necessary to establish the credibility that will allow for more nuanced cutting down the road.

Cut a percentage from everything?  Why, that even sounds ... fair.
