Congress fails AGAIN

How can America rise from the recession and decrease the deficit if the Congress, Democrats and Republicans, can not make any decisions? The congressional Republicans want to protect the wealthiest 2% of Americans and will not allow any increase of the multimillionaires and billionaires.
Now there will be $2 trillion dollars tax of automatic financial cuts of domestic and defense spending starting in 2014. Family financial supports will also end. This will be a hard hit and no one will be happy! Congress must talk and arrive at a balanced plan. By not acting and not making a decision , Congress has voted for tax increases for everyone, including the wealthiest. Everyone will pay $1,000 or more in taxes because of our dysfunctional Congress.
Today, Congress, as is the norm, is taking a holiday work break. Representing constituents in Congress is a voluntary position. If you can not do the job, you need to stop going to Congress and get another job or start a business in your local area to decrease unemployment.
The minute people get elected to Congress, they begin the political games and sell out the local interests in favor of high-paying lobbyists. We saw that with Jeff Denham's election. After he won, he went to Washington, DC and threw a private $250,000 party for Republicans and lobbyists, using money from the Central Valley - one of the poorest places in California.
Register to vote and vote them OUT!!!!!

Congress harasses super-committee - Congress Constipated

Congress is again constipated and stuck - unable to govern. Now all of the congressmen are running after the super-committee(SC) trying to lobby and influence the SC members to toe the line for the party. Each party fears one of "their people" will give in on a financial pledge. While congress must publicly state they want the SC to resolve the stalemate and come to decisions that will cut $1.5 trillion dollars from the budget, secretly the congressmen are acting like a pack of dogs to ensure no one gives up any ammunition. In addition, there are lots of veiled threats: "If you have to give up something, it's OK; we will have your back at the next election."
This SC created by the House was doomed to fail from the start and the daily 24 hour pressure will drive the country bonkers and deeper into a financial crisis.
