The anti-austerity people induce the lulz in me, especially when I keep hearing that a lot of the cuts they complain about were barely cuts at all.
Stop QE, and start looking at both the private and public debt a bit more. Scrap Social Security altogether and let people decide how they would like to invest for their retirement and keep a minimum social safety net for pragmatic reasons. If politicians want to focus so much on education and spend money on that, then turn it into the RIGHT investment with STEM program funding and optimizing NASA in some way. Get science, economics and math back into the conscious of the general public and I think you'll solve a lot of other problems, even the divide between the Democrat Party and the GOP on social issues. Also make the public school curriculum more rigorous and focused on Greek, Roman, and Western culture.
