What you miss is that we either do it or collapse.

No, I said we need to cut, and drastically so. I think that’s pretty clear. I never suggested that we don’t cut.
Believe me, I’ve seen more waste, redundancy, mismanagement and political favoritism than most people will ever see. I’m not missing anything about what needs to be done.
I don’t discount what you are saying. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t totally disagree with you either. It will be hard.
I point to what Barry has done and how he did it. Force of will. Thats how to undo it. Yes. It will be financial carnage. Yes it will be massive unemployment.
The Iceland bank situation shows that it’s managable. Easier to manage the carnage than to maintain the problems. Most of these jobs are a false economy. The regs eliminated with these depts would immeadiately create a boomtown from atlantic to Pacific. And globally.
But it can be done.
