House Republicans have lost sight of the country’s welfare. It’s hard to conclude anything else from their latest actions, including the House speaker’s dismissal of President Obama’s plea for compromise Monday night. They have largely succeeded in their campaign to ransom America’s economy for the biggest spending cuts in a generation. They have warped an exercise in paying off current debt into an argument about future spending.
Maxed out all your credit cards? Can’t afford the monthlies anymore? Don't curtail your lifestyle, just take out another credit card!
Or, hey, maybe there’s a payday lender we could go to. Would a payday lender still take us, do you think?
Memeorandum.
