So long as the game consists of arguing on forums like that to prove oneself right, and not levelsetting on what the real problems are, then there is irreversable problems.  Like, you know what is likely to happen in Washington?  Well, look for a total reversal of the Bush Tax cuts and the cross the board budget cuts, including impacting the department of defense to happen, because neither side will give ground.

I can think of worse fates. 


Yeah, that'd also be my opinion of the above.  Removal of the bush taxcuts will probably slightly hit unemployment.  However, i really question how effective a tax cut is that needs to be extended.  Companies know it can end whenever just by inaction and therefore are likely conservative when hiring because of it.

Pentagon spending really does need a cut as well, though i fear they'll cut all the wrong places like R&D and equipment upgrading.
