The US Postal Service misses a 5 billion dollar payment to the federal government because Congress can't seem to vote on approving the restructuring of the USPS.
Taxpayers are looking at a substantial tax increase at the end of the year if Congress doesn't soon vote on extending tax cuts.
The U.S. faces a downgrading of its credit rating if Congress doesn't soon vote on a bill that will set a timeline for balancing the budget.
U.S. companies have trillions of dollars in liquid assets they refuse to invest because Congress has failed to identify a clear course of financial responsibility for the country.
I have a solution for all of this. If members of Congress continue to refuse to get along, redirect their salaries to pay for at least a portion of the problems they cause by refusing to act.
Where's John Wayne when you need him?
