I want to see a balanced budget amendment...not more spending/credit. Is the US ever going to work towards a balanced budget or are they just planning on deficit spending for the rest of eternity?

I know Canada has a budget deficit currently, but if I'm correct the plan is for us to be back in the black by 2016...with the deficit reduced gradually each year. But the US isn't even showing signs of spending reduction.
