Congress may be separate from the states, but it is the citizens of the states back home that re-elect the brain-dead bozos that we collectively call Congress, and you can be sure that they will commit any financial insanity you can name, if it has even the slightest chance of boosting their re-election chances.

I got an idea. Let's start a war. Better still, let's get everyone else in the world so PO'ed at us, that we be at war forever.

A half bottle of Rolaids for this one. No prozac here.

Based on his position on currency I would say this guy is an idiot. I am paid in American dollars. If he wants the value of the dollar to go down then he is demanding that I take a cut in pay. That affects everything in my cost of living, not just things made overseas. Then he tells me that I am selfish and greedy if I won't take a cut in pay. Maybe he would like everybody to work for free because it would be in the "national interest" or some other socialist slogan.
