its funny everytime a hear of a debt plan or cutting the budget, every politician screams no it will ruin the recovery! or there is some absolutely laughable plan like the pentagon found 40 mil in savings over the next 5 years. or obamas budget saying he found a few more mil in savings over the next ten years. that is like my house about to be foreclosed on and saying but BoA, i found a quarter on the street today, it will be alright! i found savings hooray!
meanwhile we are paying off iraq and afgan politicians billions! losing fuel trucks and supplies by the tens of thousands (war) of tons and shipping jobs overseas. no one cares if stuff is made in america. we are nation of service industry, not manufacturing anymore. it needs to be a balance.
