I look at the economy like Omaha beach. The only way to survive is to go forward. Pull out all the stops, open all the valves and go for it THERE IS NOTHING TO LOSE.
That is pretty much how I feel.
Problem is, we have people standing in our way and they have both (D) and (R) after their names.
To use the figurative analogy you started with, we are probably have to use flamethrowers to root them out of government.
