All members of the executive, administrative, and judicial branches of the federal government are employees of United States taxpayers who also own various real estate properties such as Camp David and the White House, as well as the Capital and the Supreme Court building.

Think of the recent elections as performance reviews. Serious problems remain and important deadlines rapidly approach.

In a Wall Street Journal article (December 3, 2012), Damian Paletta and Patrick O’Connor discuss the current “fiscal cliff talks” that, to date, have failed to accomplish anything.

What to do?

One man’s opinions….

1. Immediately, President Obama, Vice President Biden, Chief Justice Roberts, and majority and minority leaders of the Senate and House relocate to Camp David.

2. Meanwhile, members of the Senate and House will have promised to vote into law whatever is agreed upon there.

3. If and when joint discussions reach an impasse, the Democrat leaders formulate two bi-partisan legislative solutions to the current fiscal stalemate.

4. The Republican leaders then select one of the two solutions.

5. That proposed legislation is immediately ratified by the Senate and House, then signed into law by the President.

End of “gridlock.”
