President Barack Obama and Congress cannot figure out how to get the terrible economy going.

The solution really is simple, and all the geniuses in Washington haven’t thought of it.

The solution: Give every American a never-ending credit limit on their credit cards, to purchase anything we need. It would create millions of jobs.

To people who say we can’t do that, I ask, why not?

Washington and President Obama are doing just that and have been for years; if they can’t pay their bills, why should we have to pay ours?

(Memo to the liberals who are thinking that’s a good idea: I’m joking.)
