About the debt ceiling issue...why is NO ONE?

It's called 'living above our means' as a nation. Lots of us do that on an individual basis and it comes back to Bite us. Actually - Maybe - we're on a slippery banana peal to socialism - but don't say that Too loudly. Shhhh !!

Because nobody Wants to talk about the Real issue !!!!!

Its called the Balanced Budget Amendment with real teeth and difficulties getting around it.

It should be THE litmus test for all future candidates.

Anyone who doesn't support it, prefers unsustainable, irresponsible government and hates their children and grand children, most especially progressive libs are the ones who hate their children

liberals just want to spend tax payer money. republicans want to cut entitlements to Americans while sending billions to foreign entitlements

Well, you and I are talking about it. We need to vote in people who will deal with this properly.
