This is a piece that I was reading on Buzzflash.com and thought that it would be a good post on my blog…..this person Richard Stitt is saying basically the same thing as I have been saying since January of 2011……I urge those who do not see the pressing necessity for a debt debate or a deficit debate to read Mr. Stitt commentary……an excellent piece……

Personally, I don’t see our country’s deficit as the most pressing priority. Although it didn’t take watching the History Channel’s startling revelation, The Crumbling of America, to convince me that rebuilding our infrastructure is an imminent priority, it did magnify the pending calamity which we have confined ourselves if we do nothing.

But, saying No to everything and doing nothing except tax cuts for their wealthiest election campaign contributors is exactly what Republicans want. Maybe they will wake up if we have a tsunami, a major earthquake and a Fukushima-like nuclear plant meltdown. But that would require preparation and attention to our collapsing infrastructure which would require siphoning tax dollars away from their benefactors like the billionaire Koch brothers.

Read the entire piece by Stitt…good read and good points……..blog.buzzflash.com//node/12605?ut…..

Like I have said…these are the things that average Americans are concerned with….BTW…GOP….Where are the jobs!
