Government Budget/Shutdown part 29

Theater.

Democrats- We must increase spending to 10 or our democracy is doomed!
Republicans- We must cut spending by 10 or the republic will crumble!

11th hour 'compromise"- increase spending to 8.

Democrat in November- Vote for me. We wanted to spend more but the evil Republicans are trying to kill grandma.
Republican in November- Vote for me! We saved your grandchildren trillions!

Debt goes up, life goes on.

+1 to that. Debt and inflation goes up. E.g. despite all the promises and the DOGE headling-generating bs, We're still spending more month-over-month currently than we were the prior two years.

Neither side has the interest of future generations at heart, whatsoever. By far and large, both want to rob the cookie jar before the other guy can get all the cookies.

If you own a lot of real estate and/or market investments, the inflation is a long term boon. If you're renting as a wage earning slave, FYL over the coming years/decades.

Politicians usually own a decent amount of real estate, among other investments. Funny.
