These self-lauded masturbatory “patriots” are going to further tank the US credit rating and thereby the US dollar playing right into the hands of China and Russia pushing alternative global currency exchange options.
When all those dollars sold and otherwise happy to stay tied up in overseas transactions come home to roost, inflation will effect everyone of their billionaire donors, and everyone else, more than any economic policies they’re getting funding to push domestically. It’s stupid, short sighted and treasonous to leave the federal government unfunded.
There’s no excuse. They need to do their damn jobs. Since they refuse, they all need to be voted out.
But you’re missing the truly important point - they often piss off liberals, and that’s really all that matters to the R voting base
They won’t be voted out until they manage to do tremendous damage to their voters. Because they (the voters) don’t realize they are just collateral damage in a war that doesn’t include them.
This, to me, is the worst part.
Yeah, the shutdown itself sucks. Especially for government workers and contractors who get furloughed, and people reliant on this system.
But USD is starting to get some new competition in global trade with BRICS. Tanking our credit now is an especially dangerous game and it almost makes me wonder where the loyalties lie with some of these people and if this may, actually, be treason.
