We agree with many that comprehensive budget reform must be made before increasing the debt ceiling. This, however, must be done swiftly in order to avoid breakdown. We need a comprehensive plan to stop the wasteful spending.
There are some areas where the government should invest in, but we must invest the money wisely. The government must have a sense of accountability to the people, because it is their money that government is spending. We need to make programs more efficient and evaluate each and every aspect of our government to see if we can cut costs. We should aim not to leach the government dry, but to ensure that we can do an effective job managing the nation on a budget, without going into debt.
