Yes, it is.That is your example?
My apologies; I was unaware that you had such a well informed and deeply considered rebuttal, and having reviewed it in detail, am happy to admit that I was in error.HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

It is understood that you think Austrian Economics is "right wing" and the Conservative Party is "right wing" and everything that is "right wing" is exactly like everything else that is "right wing". That's wrong though.You want a more elaborate rebuttal, give a better example.
If you feel that way, then the better response is to say why you think it is a poor example and what you think would be a better example.
The Conservative Party believes that a free market and individual achievement are the primary factors behind economic prosperity. A leading economic theory advocated by Conservatives is supply-side economics. This theory holds that reduced income tax rates increase growth and enterprise (although a reduction in the budget deficit has sometimes taken priority over cutting taxes). The party has recently focused on the social market economy in Britain, promoting a free market for competition with social balance to create fairness. This has included curbs on the banking sector, enterprise zones to revive regions in Britain and grand infrastructure projects such as high-speed rail.
The social market economy (SOME; German: soziale Marktwirtschaft), also called Rhine capitalism, Rhine-Alpine capitalism, the Rhenish model, and social capitalism, is a socioeconomic model combining a free-market capitalist economic system alongside social policies and enough regulation to establish both fair competition within the market and generally a welfare state. It is sometimes classified as a regulated market economy.
In what way is the economy in the shitter?...the US economy would be in the shitter.if the federal gov't had a balanced budget or a surplus

Jason Harvestdancer said:Austerity economics is batshit insane.
Every time it's been tried, it's led to economic ruin.
I'm sure you have examples of that ... not.
I haven't mentioned Austrian Economics; The Conservative Party is right wing; And nothing I said implies, suggests, or requires that "everything that is 'right wing' is exactly like [or even particularly similar to] everything else that is 'right wing'".You want a more elaborate rebuttal, give a better example.Yes, it is.That is your example?

Congress passed a spending bill. Biden is authorizing the spending Congress already approved. It is against the law for him to not do that.Laurence Tribe seems to believe that the Executive Branch has the constitutional authority to ignore congress.

Edit: I haven't even driven past a law school much less been to one and I know better than that.
It would be hard to find any organization that could survive bylaws that say “if you don’t want to pay your bills, burn the place down”.There is no option here that is legal. Certainly the spirit of the law says pay the damn bill.
At that point, we can all look backIf Congress doesn't approve the compromise by passing a new law, then we are back to square one and Biden will likely have to suspend the debt limit law.

and agree that we all would have been better off if he had done that at the outset.
I don't think McCarthy wanted to go as far as Roy and the "Freedom" caucus wanted to... but oddly enough, I haven't read anything from Gaetz yet. The "Freedom" Caucus has the power to prevent this by expelling McCarthy. But they don't seem to be posturing to do that, before it is passed.

I think McCarthy wanted to be a dick, the "Freedom" Caucus wants to... I have no idea what they want.... just to pretend to be radicals? Actually be radicals? But McCarthy walks away from this with a black eye. The imbecile Biden wins again by flattening non-military discretionary spending, which is kind of what was already in his budget to begin with! And the ceiling is paused past next year, when the GOP will likely take the Senate, but the Dems probably regain the House. The GOP gains almost nothing... the Dems don't get much, but don't give up much, which is their victory in this. And to be fair, it shouldn't be a victory, this should have been a boring event that ended several months ago.
