The Debt Ceiling for Idiots

Okay, so you and your spouse have a combined income of $300,000 a year. You have a mortgage, 4 cars financed, a boat, a time share in Colorado, a student loan you're paying on, and several credit cards. Your combined total credit limit is about $4 million...and you're maxed out. Now, for some absurd reason, no one wants to extend you any more credit (Sheila Jackson Lee thinks it's because you're black). So you can't pay all of your bills, you're broke, right? No you ignorant jackass, you make damn good money...more than 99% of the people in the world! Your problem is, you're stupid!...Real _ _ _ _ing stupid! We're not talking "failed you're algebra exam stupid" or "can't work the DVD player stupid"'. We're talking "Sheila Jackson Lee stupid"..."Joy Behar stupid". You thought that just because you were successful and made good money, you could have everything you'd ever wanted. You believed you didn't have to choose or prioritize like other people, you'd just get one or two, or fifty of everything. Then one day, the dumb asses that had been funding your life of leisure woke up and thought "Holy Crap! He'll never be able to pay us back!" So they cut you off. Now, since you can't borrow anymore, you'll have to live under a bridge and eat out of dumpsters, right? No nimrod, you still have two paychecks coming in every week (though I'm not sure how an idiot like you keeps a job). What you have to do is decide what to pay with the money you have. I'd start with the mortgage and groceries, but that's just me. I'd pay for the bare necessities first, then see how much I have left for extras. A couple of the cars might have to go, maybe the time share too. You might even have to move to a smaller home. But trust me, you're not broke. When I was very young, my brother and I had an apartment. A couple of times our money was low, so we pooled it and bought generic weiners, buns, and chili; then ate hot dogs every day for a week; that's broke! You just have a bad case of spoiled (and you eat a big bowl of stupid every morning). That's what this debt ceiling crap is all about. No matter what the politicians tell you; AMERICA IS NOT BROKE! We are the richest nation in the history of the world and we have more than enough money to pay our bills. We just have to cut out some of the extras; like paying able bodied men and women to sit on their asses instead of working; or sending hundreds of billions to European countries that do a worse job of managing their money than we do. This is not rocket science and you morons need to stop buying the crap these politicians are selling. You can't spend more than you make, then keep asking your boss for a raise every other day. By the way, Obama is just jerking you off when he talks about raising taxes to balance the budget. He knows damn well that a tax hike wouldn't put a dent in the debt. If you raised the tax rate on everyone in America to 100%; it would fund the government for about 6 months. Obama's no genius, but he's not "Jackson Lee stupid" (though he does think anyone who makes over $250,000 is a billionaire). He's just playing a game. It's up to you "Sheilas" to stop playing along.
