I really wish we would get to a point as a forum where we spent as much time worrying about actual, current financial policy as we do about early primary proposals. I’m not holding my breath on this.
I don’t think that’s fair. It doesn’t make sense to discuss the merits of ideas only after the fact. The whole concept of planning is to anticipate and account for future events. No reason policy proposals should be off limits in terms of discussion – particularly when they are unpalatable and significantly affect all of our future income.
I don’t think they should be off limits at all, I wish the mods let us talk more about controversial topics.
I think the amount of worry I see about things that are still very far-fetched is very overblown, especially compared to the fact that there are actual concerning things happening right now that get minimal to no discussion.
Fair enough. Agreed on all points.
