Senator Burr believes it is morally wrong to saddle future generations of Americans with such an enormous burden just to subsidize our standard of living today. In order to begin the process of paying down our enormous debt, Senator Burr has championed a number of initiatives to rein in out-of-control government spending, including:

Joining with Senator Jim DeMint to introduce a Balanced Budget Amendment (S.J.Res. 27). This amendment to the Constitution would require the federal government to balance the budget, just as required of state governments by many state constitutions.

Voted against legislation (H.J.Res. 45) that increased the limit on the National Debt to $14.294 trillion in January.
Voted against the government spending packages such as the economic "stimulus" and "omnibus" spending bills, which have fueled massive increases in government spending. Senator Burr also supports repealing any unspent stimulus dollars and using that money to pay down the debt.

And there's much more...

1. Burr Should Resign

You should resign. There I said it, believe it and request it.

By signing the Taxpayer Protection Pledge you have abdicated your pledge to protect Our Constitution. I still can’t believe how, as a smart man, you have willfully and purposefully boxed yourself into such an untenable position. The what if’s astound me: what if we were attacked and went into a war…you could not allow revenue increase to fund it….Oh wait you have already done that! Where is the funding for the last ten years of war cost? You funded it by “kicking the can’ of war cost down the road onto the backs of your children’s children. So you realize every borrowed dollar is a future funding requirement. Funding = TAX. In your world there will be no latitude for future funding. Mr Burr, when you buy something for your home, you fund it out of discrete savings or you borrowed … with collateral. Senator Burr when you bought the mountain of debt we have …you borrowed to fund it and the only collateral you gave was the 14th Amendment that guarantees payment. Now you and your party have the audacity to play politics with that guarantee.

Resign = the ONLY honorable choice.
