Former President Bill Clinton sees a possible way past the bipartisan impasse over raising the debt limit: agree to cut spending AND raise taxes, but do neither until later, after the economy improves.

So do nothing then???

No, no, no you have it wrong.   Doing nothing IS doing something.  It's just doing it later.

It depends on your definition of "when" and "nothing."

It depends on your definition of "improve"  ;/
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin
