anyone worried about their government checks next month?

[rightwinger]

Why are we seeing this Debt Limit showdown in 2023?

Because it is not an election year. Both parties know that even though there will be public outrage if checks do not go out…..they both realize the public has a short attention span and there will be no consequences that will affect the 2024 election

What has McCarthy offered?
My way or the highway

So your statement in post #16 "Biden has offered cuts" is false.
What a surprise.

Do you condone raising the debt limit to pay for the Inflation Reduction Act from last Congress? ... because "printing" more money is inflationary ...

 

[debbiedowner]

haha that’s a complete lie. The GOP has been trying to have these talks for months now

Haven't read the news this morning or didn't you understand what was offered?

Another moron that has not seen the recent cuts offered.

Only if Obama/Biden wants a Tree of Liberty March on DC

Absolutely

The US pays its debts

Biden and Kamala are Thelma and Louise and want to drive the USA off the cliff

Biden has offered the areas he is willing to compromise
MAGA will not compromise

 

[Moonglow]

The GOP has passed a debt ceiling increase.

It takes more than the house to pass their version

Can't wait for the prequel

No, I am not worried about getting an SS check.

You vote Democrat don't you

 

[Oddball]

No.

There's over $4 trillion going into the gubmint coffers every year....Way more than enough to cover interest payments, SS, Medicare, and all the other "entitlements".

Your team is openly lying to your face in order to scare the hell out of you, and they know it.

Where's his counter offer on paper?

All we have is hearsay and the standard lies that you chumps tell every time this comes up.

No one has it outside of Congress or the White House. If only the GOP were in power they always raise the debt limit.

the people with using the 14th is that it will have to get litigated. The markets will still crash, lenders will have concerns issuing debt until its litigated

it won’t solve the problem

Litigate away.
Meanwhile the bills get paid and the language of the 14th is clear.

When the GOP is ready to discuss increasing revenues, eliminating the Trump cuts for the wealthy, eliminating the Trump taxes on the middle class, eliminating the Bush cuts...

Let Joe know.

Till then, the bills get paid.

Biden has a budget
McCarthy has still not presented anything even though it is his job

Biden is still negotiating, nothing will be “on paper “ until negotiations are finalized

Less government is a win for the American people.

How about a global Depression. Is that a win?
