what? No dog and pony show like a couple months ago, I'm disappointed. What's this bring our debt up to now?

WASHINGTON, Jan 15 (Reuters) - The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday approved a $1.1 trillion spending bill that eliminates the threat of a government shutdown through Sept. 30 and offers lawmakers a chance to end four years of chaotic, crisis-driven budgeting.

The vote, which reflected strong bipartisan support in the Republican-controlled chamber, sends the measure to the U.S. Senate for consideration and passage by a midnight Saturday deadline.

Lol, it doesn't even matter any more. The general population showed their apathy by not even raising an eyebrow when they lifted the debt ceiling last time. Congress is high on the hog and hell bent on extracting every last dollar until they run this thing into the ground.

Sigh, it is sad; if we as individuals ran our finances the way Washington does, we'd have been booted to the curb by now.
