Debt

I would have called on the 14th Amendment for the power to pay the country's debts, and ignored the House's inability to up the debt ceiling.

I would have paraphrased Andrew Jackson, something to the effect that Mr. Boehner has made his own insolvency, now let him see whether he can enforce his penury!

Then I would have not paid for the pensions and health care for the members of the House. In fact, I would have revoked all privileges that cost anything.

I think most of us would have done similarly.
