Senate Republicans pull out of Biden debt limit negotiations
The Senate Republicans have pulled out of Biden’s debt limit negotiations.
This article strongly suggests to me that the Democrats, who hold a majority in this negotiating group, have refused to take seriously the Republicans’ demand to cut spending, instead focusing on tax increases as a solution. The problem is that you could raise our taxes to 100 percent and you wouldn’t solve the debt problem. The government has got to reduce its spending.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

this is bad news . i was hoping for breakthrough and a nice feel good moment, hah . it is too bad they all want to get re-elected they keep saying they can see the emperor’s new clothes . comon ! fourtune favors the bold!
I think the Repub Senators really had no choice – otherwise, they’d have to make a deal that wouldn’t really address the problem, but would raise taxes – not a good idea in the middle of one of the worst recessions in our history. It’s too bad there was no real progress on this, but I think we all know who’s to blame for THAT. If there’s no willingness to actually cut spending on the Dem side, then there’s really no point in even talking…
