It’s the Spending Stupid!

I'm going to start posting again - and why not begin with the fiscal cliff. Stossel once again shows why he's da’man!

It’s the Spending Stupid: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2012/12/19/its_the_spending_stupid__116460.html

Key point:

“Ludicrous, irresponsible spending is why we're in trouble... Democrats, who believe we have a 'revenue' problem instead of a 'spending' problem, must also think they have a bartender problem, not a drinking problem."

“To succeed, the crusade to cut spending needs an ideological understanding of how unsustainable our current course is, not just a narrow appeal to short-term self-interest. People will have to see the wisdom of giving up government benefits now -- in exchange for something more abstract: a future free society in which our children won't be burdened by debt and taxes.”
