You realize how contradictory your standpoints are, don't you? You want a balanced budget? Really?
How the fuck are we going to get a balanced budget while instituting universal health care, passing massive public works expenditures, improving education, decreasing our reliance on oil, and following through on the other half-dozen economically-draining initiatives supported by OWS?
I'm not even making a qualitative judgment as to those goals. I'm all for a balanced budget. I'm all for decreasing our reliance on oil. I'm all for government-funded universal health care. I'm all for improving education.
But I'm not all for all of them at once, because it doesn't make any fucking sense. Either we're cutting costs or we're going green or we're improving infrastructure or we're instituting national health care. It's not feasible to do it all at once. There's not nearly enough money to go around.
