What we need is a citizens group to sue Bernanke and even Congress.

How about we start with something really simple, like no one gets more money back in a tax return than they paid in the same year?

Then, perhaps, we could move on to a 30% cut in congressional and executive staff ... oh, what the heck... lets cut the judicial branch staff while we're at it.

Don't even get me started on self-perpetuating aid to dependent children, welfare, government salary levels and government retirement benefits.

We never hear this stuff, instead we hear about social security right off the bat.

(edit)- Federal spending should be no more than 18% of GDP, PERIOD
