Yes we have indeed. But on this?
I'm just trying to get to the heart of the matter on this balance the budget cut the deficit pay down the debt theme -
which is, I contend, ALL about sacrifice, pain, and deprivation, that necessarily must make things worse, very much worse,
before it has any chance of making things better, if it even can.
maybe.
the hard truth is yes it will.
we have over promised, there is no way around it. we have spent out every credit card we have and now have to live on what we make.
and let me say this 'public sector' talk, there is NO 'public' sector, that lends them a veneer of equality I object to, they are consumers, that is in private sector talk they don't produce wealth or specie of any type.
The private sector is the wealth generation sector, this is where wealth is created that pays people so they pay taxes and consume........we have to many taking and not producing, the producers have been taxed to keep the consumers in the 'public sector' employed.
The consumers may have to find other work, we simply cannot afford them anymore, it really is as simple as that. They can take some pay cuts and add more to their funds to lower the gov.s obligations. I don't see an issue with this, the private sector has made their sacrifices, we created a benchmark that we cannot sustain....the pain thats coming is going to have to start being equally apportioned amybe, we employ these folks an ancillaries, they have forgotten that.
