$2.5 Trillion over 10 years...even $4 Trillion over 10 years..sound like big numbers; but, they represent less than 25% of the annual budget deficit at most. Despite all this big talk by both sides, we will still be operating in the red, negative, and accumulating more debt each year. To me, it's complete insanity that we let this go on.
Where are the specific proposals from the leadership in Washington to balance the budget AND pay off the debt. In fact, by definition the word balance implies "even" and in order to pay off the debt we need to have surpluses each and every year. Seriously, I've only heard the kooks like Ron and Rand Paul, who are mostly marginalized in the public debate talking about really digging out of the hole.
Why haven't I heard a single member of the news media ask Mr. Obama or Boehner or Cantor or Reid or Schumer, etc..when exactly thier plan fully balances the budget and pays off the debt? If they can't figure it out, maybe they should call in Dave Ramsey!
I am sorry for ranting on this, but I am begining to get a little disgusted by what I see every day from these patronizing politicians who are getting personally wealthy while they play games with our country..
