Fiscal Cliff Debate Is About Size of Government, Not Taxing "the Rich"

"All the pretty talk about how tax rates will be raised only on "the rich" hides the ugly fact that the poorest people in the country will see the value of their money decline, just like everybody else, and at the same rate as everybody else, when the government creates more money and spends it. "

How about a new federalism where we eliminate the inefficiencies of the federal government by eliminating the physical part of the federal government. The function to be replaced by a distributed organization collocated with the various states. Washington DC would become a national park. The modern communication tools would allow conferencing of whom ever is necessary for a particular action in either the executive or congress. All processes would be critiqued by whoever is interested and the results stored for later examination.

With this done, the government would be in control of the interested. The current mix of lobbyists and special interest would of course be interested, but others also would have access on an equal footing.
