Its all a money party squabble over power. The 2 factions are feuding over the spoils.

The Teas are doing their damnedest on the behalf of the billionaire owners to rid America of all social programs. I think the tactic will backfire on them as the debt ceiling starts to interfere with the global economy. Rather amazing situation, a few religious zealot fruitcakes with enough arrogance for a billion people and from overly gerrymandered districts with small rural populations in red states have seized power in the GOP congress. I don't think this level of nonsense has ever been achieved in the USA.

I agree. It's a first.

"I don't think this level of nonsense has ever been achieved in the USA." The south has been fighting a rear-guard action ever since the Civil War. It now basically wants to throw under the wheels the great grand children of the slaves it exploited for 300 yrs.
