Nah. Local and state aren't nearly as harmful. Just a few Blue states are going to go bankrupt. Just a few cities. Texas, for instance, has to have a semi-balanced budget every year. (They still do lots and lots of harmful stuff, but it's like comparing Chairman Mao to, say, Martha Stewart.)

I really think the low-hanging fruit is on the Fed's tree.
