Trust me and trust Congress

Mitt Romney has a plan to fix the economy. It is just that he won’t tell us exactly or even approximately what it is. He will cut taxes for everyone while reducing the deficit and the economy will boom.

Unfortunately he will not tell us how he will manage to cut tax rates while reducing the deficit except to say that he will eliminate nonspecified loopholes and deductions. Paul Ryan seems to have a similar plan with unspecified details. Should they be called the “Trust Me Team”?

It seems they will work with Congress to specify some of those loopholes and deductions. So our role is to trust them and trust Congress. Congress certainly hasn’t done much lately to earn our trust.

So trust them and trust Congress. Does anyone else see a flaw in this plan ?
