Warren Buffett: I could end the deficit in 5 minutes.
>“I could end the deficit in 5 minutes. You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP all sitting members of congress are ineligible for reelection.”<p>I understand his line of thinking, but the question is could he pass that law?  He has a substantial amount of money that could be spent on lobbying, media, etc.  But how do you get people who have spent a career chasing power to sign a law that will strip them of that power?
