Reply #12: as soon as someone proposes a fix, you let us know, 'kay? [View All]

[leftofthedial]

the pile of crap that failed today was not a fix--it was an emergency dose of heroin to a craving addict or a shot of bourbon to quell the DTs. Nothing about it proposed to fix anything. It was a blood transfusion to a system that is bleeding out. It needs surgery, not temporary help. All that money would have just ended up in yet another capitalist conman's wallet.

The system is broken, corrupt and based on absolutely nothing of substance. The high is over. It's time for the hangover. There is not enough hair of the dog to keep the headache away.

Do we need a supply-side "fix" like the one that just failed?

...or an absurdly FAR-supply-side "fix" like the house repukes want?

...because there is virtually NO support from either party--maybe the dozen or so Democrats who still exist--for a real fix--a fundamental change to the system.
