Every time they raise the debt ceiling...

Every time they raise the debt ceiling...
Published:

I think of this game every time they raise the debt ceiling:

...and every time they pass a new appropriation without having the revenue to pay for it (which is currently every time they pass a new appropriation), every time there's a new round of monetary "easing," every time we get involved in a new country's conflict, and pretty much every time Congress is in session.

Is it just me?
