Anyway, I'm harping on this point because I completely agree with Jeffrey Simpson, we need to start changing the political culture around here. And this board is as good a place to start than any. We need to erase this fantasy that "efficiencies" and "waste" are the key to getting us out of this mess. Sure government can be more efficient but no where near to the tune of the amount required. We need to start paying for what we consuming, bottom line. It's the conservative and responsible thing to do.
