Remember five years ago when we were told we have to spend to prevent going bankrupt?

One thing that spending did get us was $6 trillion more in debt. $40K for every man woman and child in the country, about $160K for every senior. And now we don't have the money to pay the seniors the money they already paid in? Something drastic needs to be done. The budget needs to be cut by a trillion and the debt ceiling should be raised and re-visited in 3 months and every three months after until steady progress is made.

And the next time Washington says it's going to give money to bailouts, junking cars, and bailing out failed cities the American people need to say no f---'n way!

Yea the economy has gotten better, but at what expense? Guess what the interest is on $6 trillion? It's the gift that keeps giving.

Ending on a positive. Thank God the President changed his mind about bombing Syria.

The baby boomers simply don't give two shits about future generations or their parents. ZIRP steals from grandma and the endless debt each year f.ucks our children. My hope is the baby boomers are eating cat food after their epic failure of a generation.

Pretty funny clip from Jimmy Kimmel:

Best quote from the comments section:

"Most of America is Lenny and the rest of us are George, just trying to keep them calm and stop them from destroying something."

just saw on slate that foxnews is referring to the shutdown as a 'slimdown'. i guess they figure the republicans are going to take the blame, so let's rename the shutdown something less worrisome! yay, fox 'news'
