I don't know.

To tell you the truth, I am not very familiar with politics or economics, reason being that I'm just not as interested as I probably should be. I think, in order to "fix" our economy, you need to find the root of the problem. There's a debt, taxes, programs that create more taxes, unemployment, and the list goes on and on. Unemployment's a big issue - if the government could find some way to create some 14 million jobs, everything might be (but probably not be...) solved! Jobs mean more people employed, which means more people with income, which means more people able to pay taxes, which means more money for the government. I also think getting our country out of the debt is a much bigger priority than anything else because doing anything else is only digging a bigger hole for us. I'm not saying health care is unimportant, but we need money first...
Then again, if the economy could be "fixed" so easily, we wouldn't be here writing about it in the first place.
