And you think the Tea party would be any better? It might be better for the business people, but not for the consumers, workers, and society as a whole. And the local people and state people write the codes for whatever reason. Some of it's to make sure 'professionals' do the work, a lot of it is really dirty bribes and favors.

PolitiFact Virginia | Eric Cantor says expiration of Bush tax cuts will raise small business taxes

This story looks at the reality of the 'small business owner' in America. The people who hire accountants to find all the loopholes and schemes to try and find a .5% lower rate because it will make them more money. And now they are upset that the debt is $14 trillion, but don't want to be the ones who have to pay anything to bring it down.

Fix the system, if it is even possible (including pay rates, oversight, and punishment for breaking laws). But, it is a shame that the 'debt commission' barely touched some big ticket items (0.15 cent gas tax...and everyone on the McLaughlin Group said it would never pass... try 0.75 cents to $1.50), while going after others that are too small and provide a necessary service.

Anyway, yes I could balance the budget. People might not like it, but not paying 14% of your taxes in interest would be a better system. (And I would like to see unemployment changed in a big way. Yet, society is changing too since we don't need all of the workers we have. Computers, the Internet, and robots are taking over.
