    All perfectly reasonable, mature ways of handling the problem.

    People are going to scoff and say it won’t happen, but if we keep saying that we expect our elected officials to do nothing, that is exactly what they’ll do. Politicians are lazy, and if you give them permission to do nothing, they’ll happily oblige, and get back to their insider trading.

    We are in unprecedented times, and we will require unprecedented solutions. It will be up to us to insist that it happen, or else. Stop letting them off the hook.
