CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 23, 2023
THE SO-CALLED DEBT CEILING IS ONE OF THOSE RE-RUNS WE HAVE WITNESSED MANY TIMES. AND HERE WE GO AGAIN.
DEMOCRATS ARE THREATENING TO SHUTDOWN THE GOVERNMENT IF REPUBLICANS DON’T GO ALONG WITH RAISING IT. NO SOCIAL SECURITY CHECKS. NO PAYCHECKS FOR THE MILITARY. CLOSED NATIONAL PARKS. THE MEDIA GOING ALONG, CLAIMING A DISASTER.
IN THE PAST THREE SO-CALLED SHUTDOWNS EVERYONE GOT PAID AFTER THE PLAY WAS OVER AND DEMOCRATS SCORED POLITICAL POINTS. PRESIDENT BIDEN REFUSES TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE NEW HOUSE REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP BECAUSE HE WANTS THE POLITICAL POINTS. CURRENTLY THE DEBT IS COSTING $93 THOUSAND FOR EVERY MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD IN THE COUNTRY. LET THAT SINK IN. $93 THOUSAND FOR EVERY AMERICAN HUMAN BEING.
WE CAN’T GO ON LIKE THIS BECAUSE IF WE DO WE WILL SUFFER SERIOUS ECONOMIC CONSEQUENCES. DON’T BE FOOLED BY WHAT YOU SEE, READ AND HEAR IN THE BIG MEDIA. IT’S A SHOW AND A SCAM. CUT THE SPENDING IS THE WAY TO GO, NOT RAISING THE DEBT CEILING AND PILING MORE DEBT ONTO CURRENT DEBT. I’M CAL THOMAS.
