What is the process to develop an economic policy that provides services and sustainability?

What is the process to develop an economic policy that provides services and sustainability? Is sustainability really ever going to happen? Can we sustain an economic policy that everyone in the government will agree upon including the citizens of the world. In the last few weeks the congress has been arguing over the budget, to the point where according to the news that we were very close to a governmental shutdown. The democrats nor the republicans can agree on what is best for a country. This morning on my way to work the radio was discussing Obama's plan to cut over $35 billion dollars of spending from the budget. In my eyes it needs to be much more than that.  Truth be told the money should be cut from anything and everything except for education or the welfare programs. Why can't our government take pay cuts like everyone else in the country? Is it really necessary for us to have these big costly state dinners and such? The money that is charged per person to go to one of these events should be paid against our deficit.



When it comes to discovering the process which will provide services for economic policy and sustainability, the only process is for the government to listen to its people and to sit down and agree upon what is best for the nation and stop pussy footen around what needs to be done. We can have all the comittees in the world, but if we can't see past the end of our noses about what is really going on in the world then no process will ever work!
