Government Finally Passes Bill To Raise Spending Limit

[Shol'va]

its something that needed to be done. It wasn't just for future spending but to pay the bills and obligations we already have. It should have been raised alone and all the other budget stuff should have been worked out separately

You are right Gixxer again our wonderful politicians trying last minute maneuvers to add their pet projects to the bill to help those who got them elected or some business who is giving that politician something in return for his adding a special bill addendum to it, and on and on it goes. If this were the 1950's these politicians would be jailed for treason IMO This crap stress me out from time to time, I just need to get laid.

Bought us a little time and resolved nothing.. We'll just keep putting off the problem and one day we will all be citizens of China... Oh well... atleast the Chinese government won't tolerate all the BS our government does.

What I find interesting, is that you will find plenty of people that will say "stop sending aid" then balk when you mention "Israel".

You don't see China or Russia having trouble sleeping at night. The West should go back to Capitalism instead of trynna police the world. All that has got us is tons of wasted money and MORE countries and nations that hate us.

I look at Egypt, Syria and soon to be Iran I think. The younger generation there are sick of their regime, and revolutions are rife. And low and behold, they're doing it all without the West. And then look at the MASSIVE clusterfvck that is Iraq and Afghanistan. I wish our politicians would admit fvcking defeat and withdraw. We all know we cant be there forever, and as soon as we leave, it will all revert back to how it was previously. Heaven forbid we just let them get on with it and solve their own problems.

Then we have...the banks. The real crooks. Madoff, et al, that dragged the planet into the recession in the first place.

yeah. i was arguing with this overweight hippy one time. he said the problem was because of capitalism. i said no part of the problem is we've been using socialism.

OH MY GOD. there is common sense out there. me and my mom have been saying this to each other since the stimulus when certain companies and banks were forced to accept it or else.
