Millions of decent, hard working United States citizens have paid into Medicare and other benefits linked to their hard earned pensions. Now, many of them are worried about the Debt Ceiling and related issues. We need some solution to address our Debt Ceiling by August 2, 2011. The Democrats and the Republicans - cannot go on with the blame game forever. Some one must step up and take the leadership role. It may be true that President George W.
