In last weeks tutorial, we discussed the current deadlock in American economy.

I think this article has some very practical and wise advice for the Republicans, yet it also raises some larger issues. If the Republicans don’t back out, it will cause enormous harm to the American economy, and that is not in the best interests of American citizens. Obamacare has been passed democratically, however the Republicans are so set against it that they will not compromise. This is illogical for a 3 main reasons

1) The 800,000 workers out of a job are not likely to forget why they were put out of a job in the next election

2) If the Republicans refuse to make a deal by accepting the budget and raising the debt ceiling, they will be responsible for the great economic disruptions that ensue.

3) It goes against democratic principles! Americans voted the Democrat government into power. holding the country captive is irresponsible and does not benefit the people (especially in a country that is “by the people and for the people”).

Stop stalemating! Every day that goes by is hurting American citizens!

Stop playing chicken! We are not in kindergarten anymore! Get over it and move on!
