Here’s a (very) short quiz on the American Debt Ceiling. Just four questions, the answers to which will make you laugh.
1. Who said about raising the Debt Ceiling, “We can’t just give a blank cheque over and over again”?
2. Who said about raising the Debt Ceiling, “The request sounds like a drunk going to an AA meeting saying, ‘just give me one more drink’”?
3. Who said about raising the Debt Ceiling, “Most Americans know that increasing the debt is the last thing we should be doing”?
4. Who said about raising the Debt Ceiling, “America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership; Americans deserve better”?
You want to know? You really, really want to know?
See, it’s not about economics at all. It’s about politics.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
