Can We Borrow Your Parliament?

I hear of it in myths and whispers, and wonder if it’s only a legend.

Apparently, there is a breed of politician in other places around the world long extinct in my beloved USA.  Politicians who make sensible decisions based on not having any money.  In short, politicians who possess…The Fiscal Responsibility.

I once believed we still had politicians with that rarest of traits, The Fiscal Responsibility.  I believed it in 2000, when I thought I was going to get a government that finally made decisions based upon it.  I quickly discovered that my belief in this matter was nothing more than a cruel joke.

But I hear such people may exist in myths and whispers.  So I put this question forth to those of you in other countries who may have such politicians:

CAN WE BORROW YOUR PARLIAMENT?

If you do have politicians with that rarest of traits, The Fiscal Responsibility, I would like to cross-breed them with our local variety in the hopes of restoring such a trait back to our own leaders.  Truly, we are in need of The Fiscal Responsibility now.  So if such people do exist where you live, we would really like to know of it.

I’m calling in some favors now.   We’ve helped many of you out in the past.  So if you are aware of any possible occurance of The Fiscal Responsibility in your leaders, please comment.
