Democrats are doing nothing more than playing politics... Businesses have been cutting costs & increasing productivity; why can't the gov't do the same?!

A Ronald Reagan Budget Paul Ryan's budget offers much more than deficit-reduction brimstone Nothing like Paul Ryan's budget, "The Path to Prosperity: Restoring America's Promise," has been heard from a Republican since February 1981, when Ronald Reagan issued his presidency's first budget message, "America's New Beginning: A Program for Economic Recovery." The echoes reach beyond the titles. Both budgets announced a clear break with the Washington status quo. Reagan reversed the policies of the Carter presidency and the infamous stagflation years of weak economic growth, 18% interest rates and 14% inflation. Reagan's 1981 message posited four reversals: "a substantial reduction" in spending; "a significant reduction in federal tax rates"; relief from federal regulation; and "a monetary policy consistent with those policies." In our day, the problems are the entitlement-spending time bombs and the twin killers of low growth and high unemployment. The Ryan budget proposes to defuse the Medicare and Medicaid bombs, while, like Reagan, overhauling the tax system to "unleash the genius of America's workers, investors and entrepreneurs." online.wsj.com

On Budget, The Children Scold The Adults President Obama admonishes congressional leaders to "act like grown-ups," then immediately prepares to leave town to raise money as a budget crisis brews. So who's acting like an adult here? 'You want everybody to act like an adult, quit playing games and realize it is not my way or the highway," the president said as he prepared to head off for a fundraiser in Pennsylvania. Obama's words, directed at the GOP, are rich in irony. Since when does acting on principle — shrinking our bloated federal government down to normal size and reducing the dangerously soaring deficit — qualify as childish? Republicans are only doing the hard, dirty and, yes, adult work of making tough choices about limited resources. Unlike petulant Democrats. With their name-calling and refusal to recognize either fiscal reality or the damage their $1-trillion-a-year deficits have done, they might as well be redubbed the Puerile Party. And while we're talking childish — isn't a looming government shutdown a bit more important than raising still more political cash? Can't it wait, Mr. President? Apparently not. investors.com
