Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill

No, it would merely kick the can down the road, making the pain worse when the bill finally gets paid (or written off). That's what happens every single time the debt ceiling is reached, it's no longer urgent and so gets ignored, never fixed as it should be.

.. this Republican man made crisis could easily be avoided by simply appreeing to increase the debt limit and allow America to fulill it's constitutional promise to pay it's bills.

It is a dangerous game of political brinkmanship the Republicans are playing with real world impacts beginnng to happen already as industries begin to fortify against this potential financial calamity.

So when do you, or anyone, propose the problem get fixed? Raising the debt ceiling effectively means there is no budgetary restraint, spend what you want, the next several generations might pay for it. The fix for this will be VERY painful, both in the US and abroad, but it needs to happen in a planned fashion or it will surely happen in a way that makes it much worse.

IMHO, we (the US) need to stop sending money to other countries unless and until we get our own problems under control, we need to enforce the borders to keep the illegal immigration down as much as possible (legal immigration is fine, unlimited illegals coming over is not) and we need to enforce a budget on the federal government, as is done on state governments (I believe all states have a balanced budget law). The federal government needs to be reduced in size and scope and as much of those responsibilities (privileges, really, if you read and UNDERSTAND the constitution, the federal government is intended to be very limited) returned to the states as possible.

Unfortunately you don't understand the debt is for what we IE Congress has already approved.

As far all the BS is just that.

BTW apparently you didn't give a shit with 2 Trillion dollars of lost of tax give aways to the Rich with the Trump Tax cuts with Zero spending cuts

Believe me, I understand that the debt was accumulated under both parties, though you won't admit to any mis-spending by the left. It doesn't change the fact that it needs to be fixed, and continually raising the debt ceiling does nothing to address that. Sending billions overseas, often to countries that don't like us, is insane when we have this much debt, it needs to stop NOW. The government is too large and unaccountable to the people, that also needs to be fixed. I'm open to any proposition you might have, but please make it realistic.
