It’s not fixable. And people like Ryan who are touted as the conservatives who will fix stuff - and castigated by Dems as extremists - are actually part of the problem.

There is now no way out of this mess, only through it, and that’s going to be like running through a fire.

Yes, for those who don't prepare to live through it in peace and quiet. Those who have mortgages on their home places should try to save a few payments in advance while stocking up on other things and preparing to avoid unnecessary trips to cities for some time. Sooner or later, depending on how future debt measures are managed, large numbers of current government employees will be unemployed. They are also most of the source of revenues for the "service industry."
