I'll admit that it is actually a relief to see the public starting to question some of the debt growth approach and that everything isn't an automatic yes to whatever comes from the administration and the congress.

Nothing positive can happen until people admit there is an issue. With this starting to occur, we have likely avoided some miserable consequences of this type of "change".

Let the national debate on debt growth happen - that is what I've been hoping for. With no way to pay for everthing commited and to be committed people will be forced to understand what options and likely outcomes await us all.
