A gentle correction, please. It’s what the voters are told that they want. If the debt ceiling is not increased, old folks won’t get their Social Security checks! They will starve to death! And the military won’t be funded! We will be conquered by North Korea!
Too bad that there’s no push-back for all these lies. Not from the GOPe, and not from the mainstream media. I’d like to say more, but I’ve got to work on reducing my carbon footprint. The media tells me that’s critical. And they wouldn’t lie about that, would they?
Everybody wants to cut spending, until it comes time for their pet program.
