Ah but there's the rub FOX.
Your solutions would work but the current crop in office will not allow those types of laws to pass......The people that will make it so are the very people who would be hurt by doing so...therefore they wont do it. so what do we do? how do we get it done?
Show me a better, more feasible way and I'm right here willing to jump on board.
Well there is some truth in that. But that's where the Tea Partiers come in.
If they can inspire and infuse enough new faces into the system - faces with the vision, inspiration, reform minded, and integrity of that visionary freshman class of 1994 - they will have enough votes to get it done. We can't reverse and correct everything immediately--things like Medicare, medicade, social security etc. will have to be gradually and carefully reversed just as they have accrued to avoid untold suffering imposed on those the system has made dependent--but they can start that process and put laws into effect to prevent any further such bad policy.
We don't have to replace everybody. We just have to put in enough to have a solid conservative majority.
That visionary 1994 freshman class of Republicans and about 30 to 40 or conservative democrats transformed the government, put us on a much more responsible fiscal track, balanced a budget, and made Bill Clinton look good despite all his early stumbles and all the scandals surrounding him. I don't think Obama is anywhere near as smart as Clinton and wouldn't be able to take advantage of such fortune, or else we could do the same for him.
It was only when that group voluntarily term limited themselves out, that the old guard regained a majority and government reverted to business as usual with deficit spending and ever massive expansion of government.
