re: #43 Fat Bastard Vegetarian

There have to be cuts somewhere. $700,000,000.00 is a pile of money.

Did the system not work because it was not overhauled?

There are very difficult choices ahead. Any of those choices are going to have consequences.

If the decision was logical? I’m cool with it. If it was simply a political “take that!” moment, well, shame on them.

And see, I disagree with the part I highlighted. There’s also the option of increasing revenues (taxes) instead.

Yet it’s always “we have to cut” without even a nod to the alternative.
