Rep Brendan Boyle: "We have raised the debt ceiling 103 times since 1940...I am confident that we will go 104 out of 104."

They need to start playing nice and compromising. Not just on the debt ceiling, but everything. They automatically disagree based on which party came up with the idea even if someone has a good idea. This country is going to hell, and it's all of the politician's fault.

BB needs to bear in mind that dealing with a bankrupt(US) can only continue as long as creditors continue to pretend that Micky Mouse IOUs will or can be honoured .
It's not just what the US does, but what others will do following further US printing of imaginary money .
BRICKS spells the end of the US .Also the end of the petrodollar.

Draw the curtains . Cremation.
End of an Empire. RIP.
