The whole economy needs to be fixed, but as long as republicans are going to do their best to "STOP" anything that actually might help to fix the economy, things won't change. Of course the best way to get those changes is through congress, and the best way to get congress to actually "work" is to get rid of those who are doing all the can to make things worse, not better. Voting them out of office seems like the way to go in my book!
