Deficit Reduction Is Easy — Political Will Is Hard

SEE HERE Deficit reduction isn't really the problem. The problem is the out of control spending that leads to the deficits in the first place. Providing cover by appointing commissions to study the problem ad infinitum is just prolonging the problem by pretending it's sort of environmental. It just happens. But it doesn't just happen. It happens because the government refuses to be accountable. That's what has to end.
