    PS - In any event, nothing that I said was ridiculous. That begs the question: Why did you say that it was ridiculous?

        Oct 18th is a estimate. The risk is that Congress runs out of cash earlier than expected, setting the stage for an accidental default that would have dire consequences for almost everyone.

          BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! HAHAHAHAAA! HAAAAAAAAAA!

          So, 2 out of your three scenarios have boiled down to affecting the consumer negatively. Yet you've been sitting there arguing with Billy and trying to convince him and others that this won't affect the middle class or the poor, and then turn around and admit that people like us are going to more than likely have to just deal with the increase in cost or a decline in quality of a product for the same price!?!? What the hell are you smoking? And can I get some?

          As for your first scenario........BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

              The ridiculous part was you defending billionaires not paying taxes. I know I find that ridiculous, maybe others do too

                  Man, why are you telling this lie? I never defended them. I said that dems were playing a shell game because in the end they'll be the one paying for the tax increase on the rich.

                    How do you feel about a billionaire paying $750 taxes in a year?

                      I can never just answer your question because you keep saying things that aren't true. You said that my first statement was ridiculous when it wasn't and then you lied and said that I defended billionaires when I didn't.


                      Come clean and tell the truth.

                        I'm not lying. You have been against taxing rich people in more than one thread.

                          Democrats are lying to the people. In one form or another, we're all gonna pay for Biden's massive spending bill. I think most Americans are too stupid to realize the shell game that they're playing.
                          Billy says in multiple posts "taxing the rich will affect the poor" and you say the statement below.

                            I don't care if you answer the question. You've already been pretty clear that you are okay with billionaires paying $750 in taxes in a year

                              Where did I say it won't affect individuals ? Please post it. If I actually said that I would like to know the context
