Sigh.

All we have to do is have the Treasury take a credit from column A to column B, issue a bill, and place the cash in that account as needed.

It's what we've been doing for years. We've never been 1 day late on any payment.

Is this really too hard to understand? The only fairy tale is the Tea Party understanding of "finance". I find it amazing some are freaking out over something that has been being ably taken care of for years.

Now - tell your Congress to get your income back, that they gave away! You have bills you have agreed to pay!

Never mind, they are on vacation from their 4-day-a-week, two weeks on, one week off terrible schedule. Leaving the swamps of Washington for a month to avoid the heat and malaria. Just like the founding fathers.
