I guess I just don't understand politics or political thinking. Or finances.

Where in the fuck is this money coming from? Have politicians some extra ability to ignore debt that normal people just don't get? IMO, our government is so fucking out of control it's really not funny at all. It's scary.

the part that kills me is how few people grasp the problems our nation will face in the next decade. on our current projected course with budget reductions and all we WILL go bankrupt. i don't see the ultra partisan congress finding an agreeable solution to the problems of medicaid/medicare, social security, etc. the buck has been passed from administration to administration and it's about to come to a screeching halt on our front lawn.
