I said that being in a slow recovery, carrying debt right now is of little consequence. You do not stop spending in a slow recovery or recession - unless you want a depression. Yes, we have to address long-term debt, but the long-term debt is not of immediate concern, until we are in a better recession recovery and have a stronger economy.

The point is simple, stop spending MORE. You really, truly don't get it. You write junk like building new railroads will help. Are you insane? Do you know how many agencies and hands that money will go through before anyone gets a good train ride? It will never happen. You must have family money. No one spends money like a bona fide limousine liberal. |

Oh, and regarding spending cuts? (not people spending, keep up here) I can only assume you have been paying zero attention to the last few weeks of debt ceiling discussion.

There is no debt ceiling discussion that does not pale in comparison to the partisan politics that accompany it. You may very well enjoy going through life as a puppy who chases one leaf blowing in the wind until the next one grabs its attention but some of us choose not to do so. That isn't my fault. Two years ago, the stimulus package was "Vital for the security of America." One year ago, getting any Healthcare bill passed was "vital for the security of America." This year, it's the same thing. Stop pulling out your hair and setting yourself on fire. A deal will get done. that's for certain. It's also certain it will be a shitty bill. |

You may enjoy going through life as someone who is incredibly ignorant and superficial, but some of us choose not to be so. Your teen-aged, "I hate everyone, teh government all sux!" angst surely makes yourself feel better, and obviously self-rightously smug, but doesn't really move the country forward.
