I could agree with you to a point - but I guess it's a question of what we consider problems.
We have an unaffordable health care system. It needs to be fixed. I'm not saying that any of the current solutions that are on the table will fix it, nor am I saying there is some imperative to fix it this year. But, unless something gets done, your future generations will live in a country where the best health care is available, but only if they are wealthy enough to afford it.

Then there is the problem of the economy. I believe that the job situation will abate; maybe not as soon as we would like, but it will. The deficiet? I don't have a problem spending money fixing the infrastructure of the US. The wars that we think are so important to our national security? Well, they cost money.
Diplomacy costs money. Being who we are in the world costs money.

I want to make America better for Americans. I hate pork barrel politics. But no one in Washington on either side of the aisle seems to be able to help themselves for promoting it. (except John McCain -- it's probably the only issue I agree with him about).

I'm not for a bigger government. I don't want the government running health care. I think the government should do what it does best and that is creating policy and regulatory framework, and then enforcing it.

This country needs to put itself on a budget. But, we won't.
