CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY SEPTEMBER 23, 2021
I’VE SAID IT BEFORE AND WILL KEEP SAYING IT. DEMOCRATS ARE AGAIN PLAYING GAMES WITH THE SO-
CALLED “DEBT CEILING,” AN ARBITRAY CAP ON SPENDING THAT IS CONSTANTLY RAISED. SENATE
REPUBLICANS ARE VOWING NOT TO VOTE TO RAISE IT THIS TIME. INSTEAD, THEY ARE CALLING FOR A
REDUCTION IN SPENDING. THEY’VE CAVED BEFORE WHEN GOVERNMENT STARTS SHUTTING DOWN PARKS
AND THREATENS SOCIAL SECURITY CHECKS AND OF COURSE THE MEDIA ARE HAPPY TO GO ALONG AND
PROMOTE THIS GLOOM AND DOOM SCENARIO BECAUISE, AFTER ALL, THEY ARE MOSTLY DEMOCRATS, TOO.
REPUBLICANS SHOULD CALL A NEWS CONFERENCE AND SHOW CHARTS OF THE WASTEFUL SPENDING.
THERE ARE SO MANY EXAMPLES. VISIT THE NATIONAL TAX FOUNDATION WEBSITE FOR SOME OF THEM.
OUR DEBT IS A DISGRACE. WE HAVE A $30 TRILLION DEBT WITH DEMOCRATS WANTING TO ADD MORE.
MASSIVE NATIONAL DEBT HAS CONTRIBUTED TO THE COLLAPSE OF GREAT NATIONS OF THE PAST. WHAT
MAKES US THINK WE ARE IMMUNE TO A SIMILAR FATE? LET YOUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES KNOW
WHAT YOU THINK! AND LET’S HOPE REPUBLICANS AND TWO SENATE DEMOCRATS WON’T CAVE THIS TIME.
I’M CAL THOMAS.
