Suggestions for U.S. security, economy

Libya's Moammar Gadhafi has earned the right to be dethroned. But let's find a way to pay for this police action or war or keeping humanity safe, whatever you want to call it. It needed to be done.

Good people are being brainwashed by the conservative commentators promoted by the wealthy to convince them that taxing the top 2 percent or so will cost jobs. Don't worry about the wealthy few; a rise in their taxes could actually create jobs. They will replace equipment, create jobs, donate to charity and anything else that will keep them from paying taxes.

Tea Party, be realistic - no amount of spending cuts will make up for the mismanagement of our national debt. Only the wealthy can afford to do more.
