There's a interview in Chicago that's on continuous loop with an old lady saying she paid in SS money her whole life and now congress won't let the President send her the money that's there.
If only she knew the money isn't there, never was and congress needs to raise the debt ceiling so the President can borrow more money to pay her.
Reminds me of the degenerate gambler that goes to the barber to ask for $10 to make a bet. The barber says, 'You already owe me $20'. The gambler responds, 'yea but if I don't get the ten, I can't pay your $20'
We anticipate total tax revenues at $2.7 trillion for 2013. Our budget should be under that. Instead of another jury-rig fix of borrowing more money, let's shut down all non-essential government employees/programs, adjust it to run under $2.7 trillion, raise the debt ceiling and then re-start it. Until then let's pass a 3-month essential spending bill and let congress and the senate to get to work.
It's going to be painful but imagine the pain of interest payments on a trillion dollars times every year infinitely?
If the President thinks his healthcare program is so essential, let him find a trillion that is less important. Stopping billion dollar programs like destroying cars is a start. This guy spends money like a spoiled kid at Chuckie Cheese and gets the same junk in return.
