I think that the overall concencess was that since a republican was involved it must be tainted.  I don't agree but that is what I got out of it before

Status: offline 		Lot of the deficit commission proposals make sense, especially from the corporate interest side.  They will strengthen corrupt corporate police state and prolong its lifetime.  It has been already shown by the economists that the plan as proposed  do not lead to a significant economic growth and job creation. The economy needs different type of structural reform.  Historically, I do not know an example of corrupt system self-reform.

Maybe we could hand them a jar of vaseline, and ask them not to fuck us too hard.

Reject the extension of the Bush tax cuts for those earning less than 250k and the choices would even be easier.

Correct. It is those people that represent most of the demand for goods and services...everybody else is already almost broke. Give it time kinkroids, soon all but a few thousand...will be completely broke.

See how good the free market/capitalism [sic] works ?

Why is it important that we get our debt under control.

Well, eventually people won't want to loan us any more money, and then we'll be fucked. Greece and a few other countries have had to get bailouts recently from the IMF, and are being forced to balance their budgets (cutting benefits/pay and raising taxes during a recession, ouch) as a condition of the bailout.
