Interesting comment about bending the deficit curve down further and faster by MM. Take the auto industry. Romney wanted the industry to fend for itself. He didn't care if people hurt because of closures. He explained away that "cold hearted" approach by saying that " market forces will take care". That is another way of saying let those laid off workers go and work for Toyota, Hundai and Kia plants. That is not patriotic, is it?

If Obama sat back and did nothing because "it would add to the deficit", we would have the downfall of GM, an American icon. The US President should be smart enough to know when to use a credit card; should it be used to fight two wars or should it be used for the economic benefit of the people.

We cannot have misplaced priorities particularly at a time when we are bouncing back.

You must have a missed one of my posts where I cited several sources that compared the Ryan Plan with the Obama Plan. Anyway, here's a good site where you can see for yourself that Ryan's plan bends the curve faster than Obama's:
