Cantor, who backed out of the Biden's budget group has announced that the House is considering a possible new amendment that would require Congress to balance the US budget every year. To that, I say ha.
In a perfect world, this could really help the economy; however, as our government is too divided and thickheaded to collaborate effectively on matters such as the budget, it would do more harm than good. I doubt, however, that it will even be passed, as Cantor does not have enough teapublicans like him to back up the plan. This proposition is just another attempt to get more people behind the Republican Party by 2012 instead of a real attempt to fix the economy. What we need is a real plan to fix the budget, but with the squabbling House and Senate, that would be impossible.
