Dave Ramsey: You have to fire these people!

Dave Ramsey, unimpressed by the so-called "deep cuts" proposed by Congress, explains it in terms of our personal debt - something most of us can relate to:

“As a direct ratio, we make $58,000 a year, we’re spending $75,000 per year, and we’re proposing “big cuts” to $72,000 a year.” ~ Dave Ramsey 


Ramsey says it took us from 1776 to 2008 to get to $9 trillion.  From 2008 to present we have added $4 trillion!

This is more than a trillion dollars per year of debt slide.

Ramsey says "This is cause for a political revolution".  He says Republicans and Democrats have both got us into this situation and we need to act in a bipartisan manner to fix it.  As he put it:


"You have to fire these people."
