Yeah, I mean, really how are we going to pay off the 13 trillion debt? it's easy if it's one omnipotent power making decisions, its another with our bureaucracy trying to make cuts. We're going to either cut, or raise taxes, or both, and each is going to be a crap storm and either way we're all going to pay
it's the social unrest that will come from the unfunded liabilities that worries me ... either we default on those overpromised entitlements or we somehow make them "work" by raising taxes to unbearable levels ......
it's the state and local govts that are really in trouble. the govt union workers better get used to getting bent over. long overdue IMO>
