The situation is this. We can continue to borrow and crash. We are gonna crash, just a matter of when. Or we can give it to the dems, the media, and their voters. They will raise the debt, raise taxes, and it all goes BOOM. It is so far down the road, BOOM is only a matter of time. We (Conservatives) have taken the blame for all the ills. Let the other side crash it. Why do we have to take the blame? They can’t blame it on us if our Conservative Representatives vote Present. Also shows America where the Conservatives are.
I understand the situation. The “cliff” is an actual law not a situation. If the house does nothing what exactly happens with taxes and spending in the next fiscal year?
