If the government can't fix the fiscal cliff or balance the budget, have the government pay such out of their pocket.

There is too much unnecessary debt occuring in this country. No one is trying as hard as they should be to want to reduce this number. If the government of the United States of America does not propose a plan to the American people by December 30, 2013 to reduce our debt of the United States of America by at least 50% in a timely manner to be determined by the citizens of the United States by popular vote and avoid future fiscal cliffs, the members of the government that earn more than $150,000 before any deductions once so ever should have to pay to the debt of the United States of America out of their pocket until such debt had been reduced to such described beforehand and all agreements have been made to remedy these financial problems.
