I Owe My Soul To The Company Store......

[global1]

Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong

You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store


Yep - this is what we're facing if this debt ceiling isn't raised. We'll all be working for the likes of a Koch Brothers 'company store'.

This is the intent of the government shutdown and Tea Party created crisis - isn't it?

2. Well their is a way to avoid this...........

Giving up the ACA will buy about six week.
Then to buy another six weeks we can give up the EPA.
Then to buy another six weeks we can give up _______________ (fill in with next GOP demand)

To me if I had to take that sad trip to the Company Store rather do so without giving up my beliefs.
It may be painful but this blackmail must end.
