History is Bound to Repeat Itself

The definition of insanity is:  doing a thing, over and over, exactly the same way and expecting a different result.

Our congress still doesn't get it.  Those of us with a very small voice seem to understand, but those who seek fame and fortune in the halls of congress do not.  We cannot continue to run our affairs in the same way and expect a different result.  I think the federal government should take a page out of the book of Scranton, PA and reduce the salaries of federal civilian employees until the budget is balanced.  Included in these reductions should be the President, members of Congress, their employees, aids, czars, members of the cabinet, and any other non-defense public employee.

Indeed Scranton has returned it's employees to full pay, but not until there was enough money in its accounts to do so.
