When you get rid of all the bias and spin in the explanations given by this article (I mean, they don't even bring up compound interest as a VERY relevant piece of the puzzle in savings over time...something even an Econ freshman knows), you come down to the same fact that is impossible to get around. No matter what you do, prices will skyrocket for American consumers. You want more corporate tax? Guess who pays for that...it isn't the corporations. It's the consumer. Try coming up with a valid solution instead of spewing trash that has already been proven IN REALITY BY OTHER COUNTRIES that does not work and only causes more problems.

In the end, no matter what we do, to stop our debt from making us insolvent, it's going to take DRASTIC changes that WILL impact Americans negatively. While liberals are content with pushing the problem down the road, Reps at least have crossed the line and committed political suicide to try to fix the problem. Liberals just want to live in their fantasy land of solutions that don't work but sound good because they meet our ideology.

Of course, DR lib kids will just immediately resort to name calling. Which just proves my point anyways, so carry on.
