Right now, the House of Representatives is weighted heavily to the Republi/Tea Party. This group is railing against the debt that the country is dealing with and rightfully so. The problem though is that the solutions being bandied about by this group, are tired and ineffectual non-solutions that were tried during the Reagan years and proven to be disastrous. Trickle-down, voo-doo economics will not, can not, solve the problems this country is facing today.
Yes, there are duplicative efforts at play in Washington. Can the work in Washington be streamlined? Possibly. It will take the effort of people outside of the Washington influence to come in and audit every faction within the machinations of the government. To say it would be a herculean effort is to put it mildly. It would take some of the best and brightest minds. I propose we solicit this as part of a Graduate study program for Economics, Accounting, Public Health, and other major areas of study. Chose students from every public University in the country and challenge them to find the waste in our government. Challenge them to create better ways to manage the bureaucracy without increasing the costs to the general public. In return for their efforts, their graduate degree is paid for. I can guarantee you that the money found by those students, will well be worth the cost of their graduate degrees.
