well republicans ran on balancing the budget, and cutting spending.

So far republicans have agreed to lower taxes for the super wealthy,

If tea party and republicans really cut spending much they will crash
our economy, since ggovernment is about 1/3 of our economy.

No doubt thats because manufacturing has been shrinking for a
generation

Hummm, 1/3 of the economy? The government should never be a
substantial part of the economy because there is no such thing as
government money. The government doesn't produce wealth, all it can
do is destroy it.

The government does, however, produce money, but they can't even do an
acceptable job of that.

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing recently printed $100 billion worth of
new $100 bills. A substantial portion of the one billion individual bills
are defective. The government is currently trying to automate a process to
actually discover which of the bills to not put in circulation (to check
them by hand would take decades). While these bills are quarantined, the
Bureau has fallen back on printing the usual bills.

Each of the new bills cost about twelve cents to print.

Oh well.

Amazing. Now the Fed can't even PRINT money.

If someone at the mint was smart, they would sell the screwed up bills
as collectors items. :-)
