      David Perdue, at presser with GOP senators on a spending cut package, gets bombarded by questions about separation of children at border. He jumps in, says he wants to focus on the debt crisis and not see his press conference hijacked by the "current shiny object of the day"

      Perdue on debt: “I apologize guys, we came here to talk about a crisis. Do you realize that if we don’t solve this crisis, we’re going to lose the right to deal with all the things you’re asking about? Your job is to inform the American people. Our job is to provide a solution”

          We are condemned to a monetary crisis because of our leaders. Soon I expect we will look a lot like Argentina. Yes, we have a crisis, one of our own making. Now, finish off taking money from the people, join hands with Russia and get that new world order in gear!

          How can we look more like Argentina? Well we can triple prices on all Imports, to begin with, so that we can't afford anything imported. We've already stopped manufacturing things so we're ahead of the game there. Now we need a Market crash, debase our currency ...

          Have the rich siphon off any available wealth. Uninsure bank accounts - no scratch that the banks need a safety net like the hospitals need a safety net with only "catastrophic" health insurance. But I digress, no more credit.

          But then we'll need a facist leaning government, check, a military take over of the government, not entirely out of the question.

          He wants to deal with the debt crisis? Repeal the tax reform, increase taxes for Fortune 500 corporations, get rid of tax loopholes, increase the taxes on the 1% and don’t let the tariffs go into effect. There, solved. Now back to the kids.

          Actually @sendavidperdue what's the point of having a country if the only thing driving it is greed and money...I want to live in a country that is built on the ideals our Constitution.

          If you voted for the tax cut, you don't really care about the debt. It's a simple as that.
