spending in Washington.As was tendered in another post the representatives are knowledgeable about the condition we are in. I still remain skeptical. Why? How can ANY responsible body even think of exploring raising revenues (taxes, et al) without a meaningful run at SIGNIFICANTLY reducing spending. Everybody knows all the favorite projects, pork, give aways, bailout programs, school loans, relief to other countries and on and on and on.

Raising the taxes without reigning in the spending is a waste of time....only procastinates the inevitable.

Until such time as the attitude of our representatives, including Obama changes from one of continually throwing money at programs domestically and world wide to that of a country on shaky financial ground.....there will be NO improvement.
