It is not amazing how this always plays out.

great,, dumping more debt on future generations,,

I am sure our children appreciate the help,,

There has not been a president since Coolidge that did not increase the debt.

Funny how you only care about the debt when democrats are in office

and manipulate stock and bond markets.

As I said we would do from the beginning. Politics have become so transparent. Nothing more than a big show put on by bad actors.

I was reading about this earlier and something caught my eye.

The final count was 63-36. There were 17 Republicans opposed and four Democrats who voted against it.

So who were the other 15 people that voted against it?

Senate passes debt ceiling bill to avert US default

They do seem to really suck at math...

They also voted to suspend the student debt relief from Biden. Bad political move.

Debt ceiling passed! If only the center would wield the power it has...and dis-empower the fringies"

The Senate on Thursday night passed legislation to lift the nation's debt ceiling and stave off what would've been an economically disastrous default days before Monday's deadline.
The final vote was 63-36.
The bill will now go to President Joe Biden's desk for his signature.
Biden heralded the Senate vote passing the budget agreement as a "big win" for the economy.
Noting the bipartisan nature of the vote, Biden said, "Together, they demonstrated once more that America is a nation that pays its bills and meets its obligations -- and always will be. I want to thank Leader [Chuck] Schumer and Leader [Mitch] McConnell for quickly passing the bill."
"No one gets everything they want in a negotiation, but make no mistake: This bipartisan agreement is a big win for our economy and the American people," the president added.
Biden said he looks forward to signing the bill as soon as possible, and that he will address the American people directly Friday.

Nah, this is a completely false statement: "an economically disastrous default ". There would be absolutely no need whatsoever to default on the debt even if they didn't lift the ceiling. They are LYING about that, because what they would have done was taken money from other programs to pay the interest on the debt. DEFAULT WAS NEVER A THREAT!!!!

IT WAS all voluntary,, give them a chance and a republican will fuck their voters up the ass,,

 

[d0gbreath]

I dont consider dumping more debt on our children as a good thing,, better to default now and fix the problem,,

If we were to default, technically, China could repossess our country.
