Please. Unraveling the problems caused by the idiotic policies foisted upon us by government is going to cause a great deal of pain for someone, regardless of how they are resolved. How much pain will there be if the dollar collapses, or if we have to repudiate our national debt? The truth is, we CANNOT get to the promised land from here. I am sorry that us ‘keyboard commandoes’ are beneath your respect. I have voted. I have lived my life as a responsible citizen. I have tried to raise good kids. The keyboard is my only vent. Sure we could prop up farmers. And teachers, and wind generated power producer, and auto workers. But who is going to prop up the government?

Its easy to say cut all of it and let the pieces fall where they may when you are sitting behind a keyboard.

Its a huge mess and you can’t just abandon people after making them dependent on you for decades.

We happen to have sufficient resources in and on public lands to not need to ever repudiate our debt or our money. In fact, we have the hardest currency in the world over the long haul ~ a fact long noted by every rich guy on the planet. They deposit money here even if they don’t get paid interest to do so.
