Why tax anyone? It’s not like our government depends on revenue to run, which is why they are 32 trillion dollars in the hole! CONTROL IS WHY taxes exist. The left wing authoritarian leanings is why.
Thank you Bernie for making this clear and the horrors that await us if the GOP gets its way. This is the attitude of the party that loves to talk about how much they cherish family values and God. I guess neither were present when Republicans drafted this piece of "hatred legislation".
Since the Bible God is a sinister punk with a personality disorder (read the Bible completely)..it's not a wonder the Crazy G.O.P. supports it and not America.

But neither the United States nor any state shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
This man actually does his job. He’s 81 years old and trying to drag the country back from the brink!!! He should be relaxing after a lifetime of service to others. Yet, here he is, trying to protect people!!!!!!
There is no parity between the debt ceiling and massive, cruel cuts to every program that would help the American people. We have seen 50 years of decreasing salaries and benefits. Everyone must have health insurance, and the whole health care industry must be nationalized.
I have a masters degree and did not know about future budgets and Republican actions. Thank you for informing us Americans. Republicans hope to keep everyone in the dark so they can lie their way into power. Thank you Bernie
Thank you for serving the U.S. people, Mr. Sanders, we need more like you- Congress people who actually care about their country more than their personal bank balance.
It is strange that in a time where food and medical help is becoming increasingly more bankrupting to the average household. Congress is proposing more cuts on people that are already getting evicted, already losing their credit scores, and getting priced out of every home. Do they not understand that economies fail from the bottom up?
The Republicans want the economy to crash under Biden. They think that will then make to American people blame Biden for the crash and vote for Trump at the next election. This is all about power and elections, its not about the American people, the economy or our wellbeing, its just about Republicans gaining power and winning the election...shame on you Republicans!!!
You dont matter. You are peasant and if you arent working your worthless. Normal americans are viewed as deplorable lazy trash. If you arent giving thier churches and coffers money then you dont deserve to live.

If they don't want to talk about taxing the unimaginably wealthy fairly, why would we even sit down with those threatening to doom the world economy, if the poor are not cut off from basic human needs to stay alive or healthy?
Thanks, Bernie, for standing up for the Anerican families. To hell with the Maga Republicans. They better find another job to make a living. Vote Blue.
This is true, but unfortunately, both parties have enjoyed majorities over the last 50 years, still 50 trillion dollars in wealth have been allowed to transfer from the working class to the wealthy. There is something grossly wrong with our political system.
Yes - Bernie has pointed out again and again the growing wealth inequality in the USA. Perhaps some of it is because the rich folks do not pay their fair share in taxes. If they paid more taxes, the government would need to borrow less.
Wrong, Gerty. As a co-equal branch of the US government, it is for President Biden to let Speaker Kevin McCarthy of the Congress, take the responsibility for that decision. As President and head of the Executive branch, Joe Biden has other matters, to which, to attend. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ For one: Since the war in Ukraine, is actually a war with China, via Ukraine, with the useful idiots of the Russians, as China's proxy army, with which to wage war on the west, President Biden really needs to make a stopover in Taipei, to send the Xi-CCP Hegemonarchy a powerful message :-)
I still am unclear why Congress did not either raise the limit or eliminate the ceiling all-together when we held the White House and both houses of Congress! I remember there being talk between election day and when the Republicans took over the House in January that they SHOULD do it (in the media) but Congress never took it up. Howecome?
The area in the 14th Amendment, Section 4 that Bernie was talking about, the full quote would be: "The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned." That is the full area of the 14th Amendment, Section 4 that Bernie was talking about.

If they don't want to talk about taxing the unimaginably wealthy fairly, why would we even sit down with those threatening to doom the world economy, if the poor are not cut off from basic human needs to stay alive or healthy?
Thank you Bernie Sanders❤
don't have a debt ceiling
Exactly. Only 2 countries have this. I think it's the US and Denmark.
The debt ceiling law was enacted as a provision of the 2d Liberty Bond drive 1917. About time that was rescinded.
If it were taken away, then Republicans would have a harder time holding the U.S. economy hostage.
Thanks Bernie and any other senator or representative that has the guts to stand up there with you.
Thanks, Bernie, for standing up for the Anerican families. To hell with the Maga Republicans. They better find another job to make a living. Vote Blue.
Thank you Senator Sanders. Well said.
This is true, but unfortunately, both parties have enjoyed majorities over the last 50 years, still 50 trillion dollars in wealth have been allowed to transfer from the working class to the wealthy. There is something grossly wrong with our political system.
Yes - Bernie has pointed out again and again the growing wealth inequality in the USA. Perhaps some of it is because the rich folks do not pay their fair share in taxes. If they paid more taxes, the government would need to borrow less.
Thank u Bernie for everything u do for our Vets & for Seniors. God Bless you for helping us & for others that stand with you. Dawn Sproston
Bernie is a smart man and he is pushing for things. We should listen to him. He is going to make our lives better
Thank you Bernie! Thank you
The president MUST use the 14th Amendment! Don’t let these MAGA Republicans get away with this BS!
Wrong, Gerty. As a co-equal branch of the US government, it is for President Biden to let Speaker Kevin McCarthy of the Congress, take the responsibility for that decision. As President and head of the Executive branch, Joe Biden has other matters, to which, to attend. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ For one: Since the war in Ukraine, is actually a war with China, via Ukraine, with the useful idiots of the Russians, as China's proxy army, with which to wage war on the west, President Biden really needs to make a stopover in Taipei, to send the Xi-CCP Hegemonarchy a powerful message :-)
So what left over debt from the Civil War do we need the 14th Amendment to pay off?
Thank you, Senator Sanders!
🇺🇸 Sanders Stewart 2024 🇺🇸
@Coogan Yeah I know just a suggestion 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤡🤡🤡🤡
I still am unclear why Congress did not either raise the limit or eliminate the ceiling all-together when we held the White House and both houses of Congress! I remember there being talk between election day and when the Republicans took over the House in January that they SHOULD do it (in the media) but Congress never took it up. Howecome?
Corporate democrats prevented progress...I'm sure the major two are easy to figure out.
The area in the 14th Amendment, Section 4 that Bernie was talking about, the full quote would be:
"The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned."
That is the full area of the 14th Amendment, Section 4 that Bernie was talking about.
Thank you
"insurrection or rebellion" That would be the Civil War. This was part of the reconstruction time 3 years after the Civil War ended.
Thank You Mr Bernie Sanders for stating the truth! I certainly wish you would run again for president!
Pay our debt by taxing corporations and billionaires
Thank you Senator Saders. Just the facts.
