Even the brinkmanship itself at this point is starting to cause economic problems, decline in the stock market, etc.
Future spending does not seem excluded from a deal, then? Should the monsters get another helicopter?

I hope Biden mints a $1 trillion coin. Bunch of fucking children.
Tax receipts are higher than ever. Revenue is up.
