(Community Matters) Political hypocrisy around the debt ceiling makes me tired. Absolutely, Washington better fix the unsustainable deficit – balance the damn budget guys – this is bullshit.
And, the 14th amendment of the US Constitution makes it clear that this country will honor its debts and obligations. There is no debate about whether we will do so. We’ve made it clear – get to work Congress and pass a balanced budget as you are required. There is no congressional approval required to honor our debts and for you guys to hide behind.
Let’s move on with fixing this economy, creating jobs and reducing the deficit through spending cuts, closing tax loopholes, suspending the Bush tax cuts, and investing in infrastructure in ways that’ll create real jobs today.
