No, we can't

Did your parents ever say that to? Tell you “No son (or daughter) we can’t buy that because it’s not in the budget”, or “no, we can’t have that because it’s too expensive”? We need to say that to the federal government – “No, we can’t”. Grown-up economics need to make a comeback – the kind of economics where we don’t spend more than we can earn. I mean come on, Ben “Hey Let’s Wreck the Dollar for Funzies” Bernanke is now worried about the deficit, and if that guy can see a problem then it’s probably too late. Just say it with me: “No, we can’t.“
