OK. 对美国政客和明年大选还抱希望的，送你一句Winston Churchill

的话。　“Democracy is never good for long term planning".

所以你要是指望政客们take some initiatives, ask people to take some sacrifice for the benefit of the good of our children (yes, including ours in this country), for the long term prosperity of the US, and pull us out of this war and huge financial debt, 你真是疯了。

The only way out of this economic mess,

1) Stop the war, and cut the loss;
2) Make the business and the wealthy to pay for more shares of the tax bills;
3) Reduce the social security entitlement program SIGNIFICANTLY. Yes, that means you will get much less in SS－benefit when your retire in this country;
4) Reduce military spending drastically;

现在你告我，政客们敢做哪一项？
