To: gridlock

“That’s because our economy is unlikely to handle three more years of gridlock, which keeps us stuck in a phase of higher government spending and shrinking revenue.”

So should we stop resisting and simply facilitate higher government spending, and tax INCREASES? That’ll really stagger us. If a thief is pushing on my front door, and im pushing it closed, gridlock is my friend until i can gain an advantage.

Folks are still asking,”How did Obama win the election with such a bad record the past four years?” He gave away the store, money, food phones, free entrence to the country, free schooling, you name it. How...?? Whose money did he give away and how, since the House of Represenatives is supposed to handle money?? If he did take power this way, how long will it last, and is this debt piled on debt?? Please someone, give an answer that makes it sound reasonable!! I’m not asking about what is coming down next, just how he won by giving away almost everything (we have, earn, own, and work for)!!

Did I miss something?
Doesn't "gridlock" bring us Sequestration, which brings us less government spending, and less revenue? (Higher tax rates, but most likely crashing revenues)
