The Best Budget Plan Ever

I have an idea. If, in another week, we find ourselves again facing a government shut down, I say let it take place. Then, bring our troops home. After the last of the soldiers arrives safely home, deploy the politicians. They'd be the only ones getting paid, so let THEM leave their families and put their lives at risk every day. If we only threatened this possibility, I bet we'd have a balanced budget in no time.
