More committees and more speeches by Zer0 will not fix anything.
It's actually pretty simple to fix.
1. Implement a fair tax or flat tax. PERIOD
2. Stop building border fences and rebuilding in other countries and focus on our own.
3. Sell government assets that are not directly used by the government. i.e. millions of acres of real estate and buildings that aren't used.
4. Eliminate ALL departments that have nothing to do with the security and or well being of this country. i.e. EPA, DOE, (I could go on and on...)
5. Eliminate Obamacare. NOW.
6. Cut government spending by 25%. IMMEDIATELY.

The S&P Chief is looking to have its members’ houses firebombed by the “tolerant left” with hate speech like that...

“Entitlements” were originally perks that came with nobility, not noble actions, but noble standing. Being entitled meant being one of the favored few of royal whimsy. The entire concept of entitlement was that only a few would benefit from special treatment.
Inherently broad “entitlements” are destined to fail because they create a special standing or favor for not a few, but for many. We cannot have “entitlements” for everyone...it is a doomed concept even theoretically, practically it is a recipe for a broad and sustained disaster.

Here's how to solve the Deficit and Debi Crisis in a few easy steps. And all are the new fangled 'entitlements', or,
(cough-BS) 'Rights' that started with LBJ in 1965.
- Repeal / abolish Medicaid. That was a gift, oops - Vote buying scam, of LBJ's in 1965 to get, oops - 'buy', votes of "The Poor". It is a huge chunk of the Red Ink on State and Federal ledgers and why most of our '57 states'(/s) are broke.
- Repeal / Eliminate SSI payments. 'Supplemental Income' was not part of the original Social Security plan. And there is no logical reason why we should be 'giving' Junkies and Alcoholics money each month simply because they are, Junkies and Alcoholics. To do so borders on insane.
- Eliminate these insane 'Extended' (and extended3) Unemployment Benefits. 13 Weeks is 'paid for'. From week 14 to 99 it's 'FREE Money'. Series, 85 Weeks of money for not working? ... that's nutz and a Vote Buying Scam.
- Eliminate or drastically tighten how one gets Food Stamps. 48% of 'Americans' now get Food Stamps, that's nuts. No way that many should be able to qualify for them. If you have to eat Baloney for dinner too bad, try fried Spam, it's pretty good.
- eliminate that new entitlement or 'right' of Free Food in Public Schools. It's not just breakfast, or lunch, anymore, it's THREE Meals a day. What genius came up with THAT idea!
- Eliminate the 'entitlement' of Generational Welfare. If Grandma was on Welfare, your Mother was on welfare, and now you, a 15 yo kid - with a kid - needs welfare something is FUBAR. Especially when NONE OF YOU were ever married to whoo got you pregnant. You want to breed a herd of children, fine. Do it on your own dime, get married and/or make the Sperm Donors pay SUPPORT. Don't go looking for the state welfare office, it's CLOSED.
- Eliminate Head Start - period. that's Black Hole that's sucked Tens (Hundreds?) of Billions in and has showed ZERO results. Jamal still drops out of school at 16 (yeah 4th grade is hard) and he still winds up in Prison.
- Eliminate the new 'entitlement' (right) called CHIPS. For one a 28 year old is not a 'child'. And 2nd, should pay for his/her own insurance. In short - undo everything Pelosi did with it.
- Eliminate the 'entitlement' (right) Section 8 Housing. If you can only afford to live in a $600 a month apartment. Don't expect to move into a $1,200 (or more) a month apartment with 'the government giving you' the Free Money for the extra rent. If that means it's in a crappy neighborhood, too bad.
- Eliminate the 'entitlement' (right) to: a FREE Phone, FREE Cable, FREE Computer. Those are privileges, not 'rights' and nobody is "entitled" to have them at the cost to others.
There it is. And nobody's Social Security or Medicare, which YOU PAID INTO AND FOR, will get reduced or be affected. Basically it will be a trip 'Back From This Insane Present', to say ... 1958, when everyone pretty much pulled their own weight. And when one was in need, TRUE NEED, turned to Family and CHURCH for 'help'. Not to the crooks in D.C. for some 'right'.
And 'the rich' won't have to be taxed to death. That's their 'Right'.
