Fire Washington

One can understand when an administration inherits a financial downturn that it will take some time to turn the situation around under the "new management". When the new administration, however, PLANS for a deficit of $9.05 trillion over the next 10 years that is inexcusable. Imagine if it were a business, or any other kind of organization, where those in charge told senior management we are going to operate at a massive deficit for the next 10 years. How long do you think that they would last before they got fired?

Yet that is exactly what we have going on in Washington today. Massive and out of control spending. The American people "hired" the current administration to get us out of the current financial crisis, not to continue it and make it significantly worse. Where is the plan for economic growth and income? Where is the plan for the cutting of wasteful federal spending? Give any good management 10 years and it is not only expected that it will be turned around, it should be demanded.

The American people are senior management. It is time that we fire an administration and those in Washington who are responsible for PLANNING a deficit of over $9 trillion over the next 10 years. It is unacceptable.
