Remember 2008? Remember when the guys in the $5,000 suits said if we don't have this 700 billion dollar Bank Bailout that the economy would crash and martial law would have to be declared? (yes, they said that)If the current congress does not make moves towards lowering the debt then the next congress will have another new look. People are wising up.
No doubt, the debt needs to be addressed, but not with a the trastic surgery that someone like Ryan proposed. Most of the Tea Party would be happy eliminating medicare, medicaid, and other social programs for the poor. But they are not realistic. I expect most of them would vote to send the country into default. It could send the entire world into a Depression, from which it would take decades to correct.
They got the money but do you see the economy improving? It's still going into the shitter isn't it? You think maybe they were lying? So why do you want to believe them now?
The sky will not fall if we fail to raise the debt ceiling. Stop listening to those idiots and just follow your own common sense.
