the debt ceiling is about bills owed, money already spent, why would risking the health of a nation on debt owed be a bargaining chip? sure debate and compromise it but not at the expense of the debt ceiling which is money they all agreed to spend. It does nothing but put people at risk and is not the time nor place to do it, as history has shown.
THERE IS NEVER A TIME AND PLACE!!!!
democrats continually kick the CAN DOWN THE FUCKING ROAD. If they were willing to compromise they would have done so prior to the debt ceiling when ppl were yelling for spending cuts and avoided the entire situation.
Face it they didnt want to compromise, b/c of that they put themselves in a postion where they had to compromise.
You live in a bubble much like most party hacks, again which is even worse as your arent a part of the party your a hack for!!!
