The recent passage of a $1.1 trillion omnibus bill now sets the stage for the looming battle over raising the national debt (again).
The national debt is now over $17 trillion (which looks like $17,000,000,000,000), and growing. The passage of the recent omnibus signals yet another failure of our Congress to set and implement a responsible fiscal policy, and the executive to timely provide its reasonable operating expenses for the coming fiscal year.
