Debt ceiling, the next GQP manufactured crisis
- Thread starter Cuddles
- Start date
Taxation is actually pretty low compared with the pre-Reagan era.
How bad ya think Biden is going to let The Cons fuck us on the debt ceiling deal?
Biden also refused to rule out a short-term debt limit increase.
“I said I would come back and talk,” he said. “The one thing I’m ruling out is default, and I’m not going to pass a budget that has massive cuts.”
Biden expressed openness to one key GOP ask: Rescinding tens of billions of dollars in Covid funding.
“The answer is, I’d take a hard look at it,” Biden said, adding that the government “didn’t need it all” but needed to determine how much of that pot has been committed to various projects. “It’s on the table.”

Bucklin' Biden wants these cuts. Hence no media hit pieces on GOP "blowing up our economy"

The corporations want spending cuts, this isn't a solely GOP stunt.
They sure as hell don't want higher taxes in this made up debacle.
