"House Republicans have now used the debt limit twice to create a hostage-like situation that brings the nation close to an unthinkable default. " "The debt limit itself needs to be scrapped. " https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/05/28/debt-limit-deal-future/
@Gaythia We could... IF we significantly cut our expenses, then yes we can have money left over to take care of things important to our future... But thats not the case, politicians want to spend spend spend on tons of wasteful things that dont support our future (like financial support for Israel and military spending as a whole)...
So sure, by all means, invest in our future, but do it in a way that ensures we get our debt to 0 as we do it, which is also important for our future.
