though this author may indeed be underestimating just how hellbent the White House is on milking this for all its worth, but this piece is still worth a look anyways.
all good articles. The one thing i notice they don’t include is that after we pay the constituionally required debts, we are essentially handing over the choice of what to spend on to the president. I’m going to have to jump threads and apollogize to colt.
