A "Do-Nothing" Congress Is A Good Thing

Dear Readers:

You are being told my the stenographers in the media that the "super committee" was a failure. These same people are telling you that congress is at it's lowest poll numbers because that have not accomplished anything. These conclusions are born of a mind set that government is and has the answers to our problems. It does not for it can not.

That the "super committee" has done nothing is only good news for us. We have a 1.4 trillion dollar deficit. We are 9 trillion dollars in debt. Yet these smartest people in the room could not find 1.2 trillion dollars over ten years to cut from government spending without increasing taxes. That is because those institutionalized government officials really and truly do not believe government can not do with less.

This committee was bound to fail because the playbook of the President is to run against a "do-nothing" congress and there is no way the Democrats on this committee would allow any accomplishment for it would negate the President's re-election agenda. Proof of that is that the Republicans did offer 500 million dollars in revenue enhancements (read that as increased taxes) and the Democrats walked out of the room.

This bring us to the second point, congresses' poll numbers. The Republicans were voted control of Congress not to work with the democrats and the President, but to thwart and overturn the havoc they wrecked on this economy during their two years of total government control. That the establishment Republicans did what they always do, compromise their principals to look like they are reasonable people, to get good reviews in the media, is why their numbers are low.

They truly believe that last November was an aberration. They think voters had a temper tantrum and cooler heads must prevail. They too think that they know what's best, not the voters. The "tea Party" anger that gave Republicans control of Congress has not waned, it has grown angrier.

Look at the debates. Romney represents the establishment Republicans and he can not garner more that 25% of support. The anti-establishment is still a strong 75%. This is telling.

The real problem is that both parties are still doing what they think will keep them in power. Trying to get re-elected is more important than doing what they were elected to do. For that a pox on both their houses. This is my opinion, you may beg to differ.
