I think the problem with that is, how many times can you apply that as a band-aid fix to the problem?

As an individual, if I'm having trouble paying my bills, I can't just make more money magically appear. Being a responsible adult tells me that making CUTS TO SPENDING is what I have to do in order to make ends meet. I don't know why it would be any different, on any scale.
