Whew!! Just in the nick of time, Congress, led by a
‘compromise’ between the intrepid John Boehner and Obama-ite radicals have
again saved the nation by averting a devastating government shutdown. They have
courageously raised the debt ceiling, insuring that no special interest group
will go unrewarded, no boondoggle unfunded, and no reduction in the rate of
increase in spending will hamstring any federal agency, except for the
Department of Defense, of course. We’ve heard, time and again, how vital it is that we reach bipartisan
agreement so the government will not be shuttered and crucial programs will
continue to be 100% (or more) funded.
Way to
think outside of the box, guys! We are just $18+ trillion in debt right now. And the debt ceiling has only
been raised in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2008 (again), 2008 (again,
no kidding), 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and now in November of 2015. This time, though, is different, this
time is the charm! This is huge! We’re on the right track now, ladies and
gentleman. As long as we don’t risk shutting down the government that vacuums
up all of this money from us, we should be fine!
