[quote=briansd1]CA renter, your solutions won’t work. They are all conditional on each other and that’s not how the real world works.
In the real world, you get what you can.
If nothing is done, municipalities will go into bankruptcy one after another. That could be the best solution of all.
The response to the financial crisis is the same. If Congress won’t act, the Federal Reserve must step in.[/quote]
That’s a teriffic load of BS, brian, and you know it. The changes I mentioned would be reasonable and legal (unlike trying to take away vested benefits from employees who *earned* them, and who did NOT cause the financial crisis).
It’s funny how you claim that the people who caused the crisis should not be held to account, while cheering on the attacks on innocent people who simply chose careers with more stability.
1. Make those who are responsible for the crisis take the first loss.
2. Enact what I proposed above.
3. THEN, you can talk about stipping away vested benefits, if that’s even necessary (and I doubt it would be necessary, in many cases).
