For months on months we have been bombarded with the realization that the Federal deficit is getting out of control….we are told that we need to kill health care or the at we need to tax more or that we need the Tea Party or the Dems or even the GOP to fix these problems….we have been told all the problems, some imaginary some not so, but the point is that we have been told all about the problems……cool huh? But have you heard one of these people tell you how they would repair our spending spree?
I do not mind the spotlighting of the problems, as some see them, but I do dislike the fact that NONE have an idea….they must check with their party apparatus to decide what they would do….NONE have an original idea….
I would like to thank our friends over at “Why We Worry” (go to blogroll and visit a very good sight) for turning us onto this……
The NY Times has an article about how YOU can fix the deficit…..take your ideas and plug them into the questionnaire and see if you have what it takes to fix the deficit and make America strong again…..it will take about 10 minutes, if you do not read without moving your lips, maybe a little longer…..but see if you are as smart as a politician….

So what were your choices and why?
I seem to have turned the deficit into a profit… er… I think. I think I might have taken the same attitude as you (though some different choices) but I guess I can be nastier when pissed!
Nastier? You? Never!
Like I said…they need to go for what works and NOT work about their damn re-election…..the country is bleeding and they are applying a very small band-aid….
NY Times has published a summary of the stimulation……
