This is how the game is played. Get your support base whipped into such a frenzy about their opposition, that they will believe all our problems are due to them alone. Both sides suck, and both sides want you to blame it all on the 'other side'. Its not all democrats fault, and its not all republicans fault. They both play the same game. Dont be a sheep.
Do you realize, our national deficit has reached the point that we owe $45,000 for every man, woman, and child. So realistically each of us hard working, tax paying citizen owes (China) somewhere just less than $100k. Can YOU afford to pay someone $100k? And yet they all, both sides of the aisle, simply want to raise the debt ceiling. What do they care, all those senators and congressmen are millionaires, they have themselves covered. Revolt, against both sides. To simply blame the 'other' political party is simply playing into their game. They love it. They survive on it. They thrive on it.
Disagree now, even laugh if you want... but one day you will see Im am exactly correct. That's the day it will be too late to turn this shit around.
