Once again mainstream media is escalating the last-minute debt ceiling
doomsday propaganda.
The so-called debt ceiling is complete bullshit. A piece of paper is signed, and for no good reason at all the state can borrow trillions of dollars. This was done 78 times since 1960, more than once every year. It's a joke.
Every now and then, a 'crisis' develops. A bunch of morons can't sign a piece of paper, and we can't pay our bills... The world might end at the end of the month.
Every time that happens, a 'last-minute agreement' is reached. Don't worry, kids -- grown-ups saved the world again. Relax, you are in good hands. Thank god we have such amazing politicians working so hard late into the night, threatening to not sign a piece of paper if cheese farmers don't get a billion dollars or maybe people with good credit should pay high interest while welshers should get low interest or whatever.
So I hereby predict that the world won't end this time. Although with a senile president who spouts nonsense whenever he goes off-script, who knows. It's a good thing that every candidate in the next election is close to 100, no?
