Makes you wonder why he didn't suggest cutting 20% out of the Federal Budget across the board, with a 10% reduction in pay for all Federal employees, and a moratorium on any more earmarks in any legislation for the next 10 years.
This frigging idiot and his partner are talking about socializing health care as if there is not enough to pay for now.
These guys are going to fiddle while Rome burns, I just hope we can pull them out of their holes in a couple of years in Switzerland or wherever they flee, to face the American public for justice.
Sorry, starting to get real worried I know just enough about finance (Master's Degree) to know how close we are to the edge right now and I honestly see no way out except for gutting the Federal Government and making it responsible for regulating international trade and providing for the common defense (on a much more limited basis) and the radical reduction or elimination of all entitlement programs. Unfortunately, it's too late and there is no way any politician alive today has the ability to lead us out of this desert.
So get ready, for The Coalition of Southern States, The Western Confederation, and The Peoples Republic of New England. (oh and Texas of course there will always be a Texas)
