The humanitarian crisis in Texas and Louisiana due to Hurricane Harvey
has the potential to make it easier for Congress to address two
contentious issues:
raising the debt ceiling and keeping the government running.
I will be reading all of them (up to the point, at least, that they degenerate into arguments between two or three particularly vociferous and
contentious individuals), but I will be responding only to those that
raise particularly interesting questions or
issues, or point out any bone - head mistakes I may
have made that need to be fixed.
