NY Times Budget Puzzle

For the 2015 short fall I saved $593 Billion Dollars, for 2030 I saved $1,366 Billion dollars.
64% Were saving from tax increases, 36% came from spending cuts.

The easier part of the puzzle was making cuts to the military. Even though we are just getting out of a war in Iraq and still in Afghanistan I feel that we do not need to enter into war at this time. I also cut nuclear funding we have about 1000 nuclear war heads, one should be enough to destroy a target why would we need more? I tried to stay away from tax increases and cutting federal workers because both of my parents are government employees. I think if spending cuts were just made to the military it would easily cut our budget in half.
