The only long term solution that would work would be to change the culture of “need” that has impoverished our nation to one of rugged individualism.

Our whole country is turning into one giant Randian Starnsville and it really sucks.

The problem is with the spirit of our nation.

That’s cultural, and we are going to have to deal with that, but I think by the time we’ve turned the tide on that, it will be too late to correct the spending.

Plus- I think a Constitutional Amendment would be a process that would get Americans talking about this issue, and maybe they’d really start to think about what government should be doing with our money. That would be a good start towards changing this culture.
