Holy fuckballs, this is stupid and irresponsible. I suppose this means the Social Security Trust Fund IOU drawer can't take anymore. Underfunded pensions are just now recovering from the recession so the same assholes that were using an 'Obama takeover of retirement accounts' as a scare campaign during the last election cycle are proposing a financial mechanism that ensures underfunded pensions.
Congress delays funding for current obligations so now they think it's a good idea for corporate America. Idiots. I wonder what the Sphincter of the House would think about my plan to pay my 2014 tax obligation in 2080?
Fucking cowards. The best solution is easy, but will be wildly unpopular; raise the gas tax (you know, the tax that specifically generates revenue for the highway fund). This won't happen because Congress knows the stupid average American will take a gas tax hike to the ballot box, but is too stupid to realize he/she will pay via the tax distributed in every good and service purchased.
Just another reason why we need a system like the FairTax. Also an example of how the system is manipulated to remove accountability via the vote that someone was waxing poetic about.
