The debt ceiling is silly. If this turns into an opportunity to get rid of it, that would be a win for the Dems. The knock down drag out should happen during the budget negotiations.
@lawrenceksyahoocom lol, the debt ceiling is silly say Republicans when they want unfettered access for tax cuts. Stop acting as if you are clueless as to why it's an issue now.
The debt ceiling expires in March. They can't eliminate a 2T deficit in 6 weeks. Therefore, the debt limit needs to be extended. They want to eliminate it because its dumb. It doesn't actually prevent the government from wasting money. It instead just wastes time and leads to these convoluted bills to raise the debt limit, which are full of a bunch of unnecessary items in order to get enough votes.
It is now advantageous for Republicans to get of the debt ceiling so that it is not an issue when it needs to be raised. A few years ago, the crazies shut down the govt because they thought the debt ceiling allowed the govt to spend more money, but that’s not what it does. It allows us to pay back the money we have already borrowed. Since republicans are now in power, they dont want the news saying that they are raising the same thing that they railed against. Also now democrats can use the same function against the republican to shut down the govt. Which is the real reason why they want to take it away. They dont want the ability for the Republicans to look like they are for raising debt. Even though, it must happen for the USA to remain a good borrower.
If all Republicans in the House agreed, the Republican majority there wouldn't need House Democrats. Ex: Raising the debt ceiling for Trump, but asking for it in advance so Biden can be blamed.
Democrat's explain that they don't want Billionaires controlling our government decisions, unless they are the usual suspects and Democrat donators (i.e. Bezos, Zuckerberg, Gates, Bloomberg, Buffett, Or Soros).
As an Air Force civil servant working on an AF Base I saw the horrendous cost to so many people. Only the essential staff remained, the contractors suffered the most. The cleaning, landscaping & eatery staff were not paid, nor were all the aircraft contractors. 😡
@@MrDarkparakeetYou must have failed Civics class. House of Rep controls the government funding and GOP has the majority. Study before opening your tiny mouth.
The sad thing about Trump supporters is they don't even realize these people aren't about to follow through on any of their promises prices will not go down and things are about to get worse but hey at least they won right that's all they care about even though they voted against their own interests😂
You liberals are so gullible. You repeat everything the corporate media says like a parrot. If they told you breathing air causes cancer and inflation was caused by climate change, then you'll believe it without question. You prove everyday you are as gullible as they think you are.
Shut it down! My father always said if there’s something that’s isn’t working for you then change your ways and do something different … we need to shut it down a they don’t need to be paid. Maybe they will get their act together now. The only positive thing here is a shut down.
They should set the ceiling at $39.9T. They should include a provision that if it is reached, it CANNOT BE RAISED. THE BUREAUCRACY MUST BE CUT BY 30%. AND, Congress must take a 25% PAY CUT, FOR FAILING TO PROPERLY MANAGE THE NATION'S FINANCES. Members of the House Ways And Means, and Senate Finance Committees MUST RESIGN.
The last 2 government shut downs were under Trump is his first term. He isn't even in office yet and he's calling his minions to do another one. They are hoping the people will blame it on Biden. Some of Trump's base probably would.
If the government shuts down can we get congressional members term limits in the next proposed bill? Anyone that has been in office 35 plus years or over the age of 65 needs to be automatically retired! 🍻
The Weaponization of Taxation Regardless of which party. Enacting taxation then giving “tax breaks and credits’ to some is weaponization. The Federalist Papers. Author: James Madison “The apportionment of taxes on the various descriptions of property is an act which seems to require the most exact impartiality; yet there is, perhaps, no legislative act in which greater opportunity and temptation are given to a predominant party to trample on the rules of justice.”
I see what they did there. They came under much scrutiny, so they are saying they came up with a plan, but need Dems so that if it shuts down they can then say it was the Dems who didn’t get on board.
Is it just me, but Scott's mannerism and style of talking makes it seem like he's playing a character in a movie? He does a good job of it, wears some sharp clothes and a yellow tie, has a chiseled chin, and then mentions Kryptonite, as well. LOL
It is my understanding that the House is supposed to complete the annual appropriations budget By JUNE 30 OF EACH YEAR. Congress repeatedly fails to meet the schedule having only met it four time since 1974. It appears Congress has usually not been able to do their jobs in a timely manner.
Congress. quit thinking like the rich and wealthy. Go back to the basics. basic financial planning. If something is Affordable, its price is reasonable, it is inexpensive, and most people can afford it. An affordable product or service is one that is within most people’s budget. In this context, the word ‘ budget ‘ means how much money somebody has available or put aside to purchase something. Think affordable.
I'm no Biden / Harris or Trump supporter though I am a proud American and this is what oligarchy looks like ladies and gentlemen the fact that these billionaires have this much direct influence is insane now yes billionaires have always had their hands in politics but not so Direct
If Trump and Musk didnt speak out whats bad on the bill people would not even know whats going on. The people need to know whats going on. So what Elon Musk spoke out and said the bill is bad. He just said what everyone was thinking that read the bill or knows all the things on it. It was not a clean simple bill like it was suppose to be.
How can Trump Musk and Biden all be running 💨🎽 our country\Trump will not be inaugurated into office until January 2024🥀🥀🌹🌺💨💫 this is really super crazy 🤣🥀❤️🥀❤️🥀 B-)8-):-):^)^_^o:-)🌹.
Since the GOP doesn’t hold a majority in the House or Senate it must be a bipartisanship agreement. The only one who can throw a “Monkey Wrench” into the works if Trump refuses to sign it.
We grew up without consumerist minds. We don't give Christmas presents. We prefer to save for times of hardship and have a simple dinner at midnight on 12/24.
I thought they wanted to cut spending? Yet they want no debt ceiling?

No pay rise for them they don’t deserve it…
no matter who you voted for, y'all voted for this. because you allow it
So libs lawmakers don't deserve it?
