I agree, what bothers me though is the vicious partisan name-calling from both sides. More waste.

President Obama inherited the whole bloated system from Bush, who had inherited it from his predecessor, who had inherited it from his, literally back to Washington. Literally.

The old saying about asking the pigs to control the trough is very true, and like many others, I don't know what to do about it. But perhaps if both sides stop the political nonsense and work for the good of the country, some middle-ground compromise can be found.
