It's the easiest thing to say but not really an answer. Everyone wants fiscal responsibility but can we trust the incoming congress to do any better?
I don't think so.
You missed part of my original post in this thread:
I'm going to use my vote to try and put new people in during the primaries instead of incumbents then when it comes time to vote I'm going to look for the canidate with either the best actual record on fiscal issues or if they have no record yet then the one whom states and promises the best position in the area of the debt and taxes.
I'm voting in a new democrat in the congressional primary to take out the incumbent democrat and i'm going for a new independent libertarian for the senate seat in the primary.
If we get enough of the old corrupt incumbents out by either voting for the other party or replacing them in the primaries prior to election we may have a chance that the new incoming members will be able to break through the old corrupt political system.
Absolutely!
And one of the first reforms MUST BE term limitations: 6 years max for Congress and 10 max for fed judges, including SCOTUS.
Second critical reform is NO PRIVATE MONEY for ANY campaign or party so we can block special interest buy offs and bribery-corruption games.
Third critical reform is to criminalize the bullshit games Obama and Pelosi and Reid played to get that damned medical insurance fraud of theirs made into law.
I am all for term limits.
