No solutions will come from DC.
DC is the problem.
Nothing other than higher taxes and less freedom will come from Washington.
Time to stop looking to the political class in DC for solutions to the problems they have created.
If Rand Paul and the GOP and the communist faction Democrats really want to help us citizen tax payers outside the Beltway, they all ought to commit suicide.
Bump, bump, freaking BUMP to your outstanding post!
Washington is in need of a massive, dare I say, DOUCHE!
Hmm. A President still has significant power as we can see with Obama so if you elect a president who is principled and committed to using that power in a “good way” you can make a difference.
For example, as president Rand could propose a budget that cuts funding for lots of departments. As president he can do an awful lot to get things moving and depending on how the congress co-operates. He could re-write the tax code which would be a big help.
But I agree with you, unless the congress complies a president cannot do much but the president can push his agenda through or at least try to. Someone like Rand is likely to find even the GOP members of congress force him to spend silly amounts of money, isn’t that what they did to Nixon and said if he didn’t spend the money they would impeach him?
