How can anyone that earns an income and runs a household not understand their government is out of control.  The consequences which will destroy not only the country, but them with it.  The U.S. public debt (the total of all annual budget deficits) now exceeds $17 trillion and is climbing rapidly.

There is an interesting piece in The Hill about five incumbent Democrats who are worried about what Obamacare means for their chances of getting re-elected.
Five vulnerable Democratic incumbents who this week called for extending the law’s enrollment period and delaying penalties for not signing up on time come from states where voters hold unfavorable views of the law.
