Congressional Screw you Christmas Gift
Not only does the congress pass the dumbass healthcare plan the nation is opposed to. They back that up by raising the ceiling on the government debt to $12.4 trillion, a massive increase over the current limit. This was of course followed by President Barack Obama promise to address the problem next year. We wonder if these are promises he does not mean like transparency or promises like health care that are win at all cost. The Senate using the extremely rare Christmas Eve vote, 60-39, raises the debt ceiling by $290 billion. Then they are of to their homes to enjoy the holiday recess with thier family. They will enjoy their healthcare plan which will not change unlike regular Americans. They will enjoy being able to raise the debt to pay for more programs unlike regular Americans. They will enjoy increasing budgets of the government departments unlike regular Americans. Everywhere people are cutting back and trying to stay above water everywhere but congress. So it is Christmas Eve and we get healthcare and raised ceiling on the government debt. So today when you look out your window that is not Santa flying by, it is your congress flying over your head with two middle fingers in the air Merry Christmas to all, enjoy your just got screwed night.
