Here’s another thread where we should ask whether the limitation of our purchases of foreign goods can help.

What if we had laws that said you had to balance the budget?

What if we had kept spending at 2000 levels and increased only at the level of inflation?

What if we had PAYGO in place when Jorge Arbusto decided he wanted to buy off seniors or go fight a war in Iraq?

What if we hadn’t gotten rid of the rules that said debt levels were limited at 12:1 ratios instead of letting the banks and financial houses keep borrowing and lending without a care?

What if......?

Obama, you want to give us real change from Bush? Balance the budget. Yes, we can balance the budget without cutting defense or raising taxes. Yes, we can!

No problem.

It's only money.

Ours.
