Debt Ceiling

[Gabby]

Deep question.


 
 If you can answer this correctly, you can answer
the question on what action to take on raising the Federal debt ceiling.

             

             You come home from work and find there has been
a sewer backup and you have sewage up to your ceilings.

             What do you do......raise the ceilings, or pump
out the waste?

First, move.  Next call your favorite politician and tell him/her that he is as full of "it" as your house.

LOL,
 but, hmmmm.....
difficult one to answer Gabby.

it makes me think:

who put in more sewage than the pipes can handle in the first place? 

if you pump it out, where do you leave it?
do you have room on the loft?

I would call the plumber and redo the system..... 

@Harold: what do you think, will ducktape do the job?

Marcel do I detect a note of sarcasm? 
I'm afraid the only use for the duct tape would be to bind and gag everyone in DC, which isn't a bad idea!

So far no one has answered the question.

 If you can answer this correctly, you can answer
the question on what action to take on raising the Federal debt ceiling?

Gabby, sarcasm??? who me? NOooo way, its more ignorance i think 

So, before I can answer the question need to know more.

still haven't figured it out,

if this guy in your question, comes home in his lets say his white house, which is full of sewage, does he still call it a white house? 
or after he pumped everything away is it called the  out-house  then..... 

I guess I'm getting there.... 

[yyyyyguy]

Easy...pump out the waste and FIRE the plumber

[Gabby]

How about fireing all those people who are flushing all our money down the drain as fast as they can pull the lever with both hands.
If they don't have it they can't spend it. Delete the D**n Debt Ceiling put it in the basement. Insist they can only spend what is on hand. NO CREDIT CARD!!
