re: #161 mr.fusion

How about growth? How about we start making things again? How about a massive infrastructure/high speed rail project that will put money in the pockets of the middle class/blue collar workers that will spend it and put it back into the economy?

How about we start talking seriously about ending the war on drugs? Revamping the Justice System? Legalizing online gambling? Selling off some of our gold reserves?

I’m all for all of those but over the last 3 years the federal budget has increased by a trillion dollars. How do you plan on growing the economy fast enough to compensate?
