Warren Buffet's plan to fix the debt crisis: "I could end the deficit in five minutes. You just pass a law that says that any time there's a deficit of more than three percent of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election.”

Is it wrong of me that I think the budget could be balanced easier if these asshats all took a pay cut to minimum wage?

And that chickenshit McConnell....saying 'no deal with Obama' and then trying to give a backdoor for Obama to stop the country shutting down, while they can point and BLAME him for unilaterally raising the ceiling.

Honestly, ever since I learned that Congress has to specifically vote against giving themselves a raise, I've had little sympathy for anyone in Congress. McConnell's bullshit is just the icing on a shit cake.

Sometimes I wonder if we shouldn't have ONE term limits. Maybe then they'd know they may as well knuckle down and do some work, since running for re-election would be off the table.

But no....I know there is no easy solution.
