If the Dems ever control both houses of Congress again it will happen faster than you can say Walking Around Money

The problem is not the debt ceiling, which by the way has been nonexistent for the past four years because there has been no budget. If there was to be a budget then there would be a budget constraint. Hence, this President and the Democrats win with no budget and the ability to continue unlimited printing of money. The Republicans are complicit in this obvious dereliction of Congressional duty and are enjoined with the President it raping the American people. No budget is a license to steal - and it is a way to do an end run around fiscal sound process of imposing constraints contained within a Budget; Continuing Resolutions allow the government to operate without a Budget. This is the entire problem in a nutshell.

We are long past the point of no return.

FUTG. This idea should be DOA ! That a-hole should be in prison and IMHO, part of those responsible for the 2008 crash.

Honestly they might as well. It’s not like the debt ceiling has accomplished anything. Hasn’t slowed spending, hasn’t spawned fiscal responsibility, all it’s done is make them increase it every couple of years. For all intents and purposes it doesn’t exist, they might as well make it official.

might as well. It would make it easier on the Republican’s asses. The Democrats would not have to ream them as often. And the Democrats get what they want everytime anyhow.
