Show us the math!

The state government here in Minnesota is currently in Day 6 of a shutdown.  The President and Congress are locked in a dance of death over the federal budget.  Personally, I blame all parties. A plague on all your houses!  You were hired to govern and you're not doing your jobs.  You're only campaigning.  If you have the courage, here's how to proceed to fix the problems.  It's very simple. 

Present specific solutions supported by rigorous math. Don't tell us about your personal values and priorities, show us what they are.  We value the things we spend our money on. That's true of individuals and nations equally. Don't tell, show.  Once more for clarity:

1. Do the math.
2. Show your work.
3. Present your solutions.

If you can't do that, shut up and resign. We the people will be better off without you.
