Killer analogy.

The boat has a leak. We can either bail the water to keep it afloat until we get to shore or we can sink. Saying "just patch it" isn't helping anyone, because Congress (not sure who they are in this analogy, but oh well, no analogy is perfect) isn't patching anything anytime soon and besides, even if they do patch it, the boat is still full of water. 

Sometimes, the "strategic" option isn't available (for one reason or another), so we can only do what we can with what we have. The Biden Administration is doing what it can with what it has to keep the people afloat until Congress gets its act together (which may take some time). 

I support keeping the boat floating, not refusing to bail the water because reasons.

Enjoy the ocean floor.  I hear it is lovely.   ðŸ˜€ 

I've said my peace.  I don't support debt forgiveness.  I'm entitled to my opinion.

Edit

Biggerboat1 I think it 100% spot on.  Lots of middle aisle people feel that way.  A few years ago I was a hardcore  Democrat, not so much anymore.  Largely because Democrat's force assimilation, you can't even think slightly out of party lines...  see this thread for example.  I've gotten next to no respect despite valid points and agreeing on most other topics.  Democrats are all or nothing these days.  A shame to see free thought be discouraged.

  

I think you’re getting overly sensitive, who is discouraging free thought or saying you aren't entitled to your opinion? You’re acting like we are trying to get you banned. This is a forum, it survives by having discussion and naturally disagreements create more discussion than agreements.

Free thought and opinions go both ways, you are allowed to share your views and others are allowed to share their opposing views and explain why they think you are wrong. I’ve noticed when people talk about free speech being repressed, what they actually mean is “I want to share my views and I don’t want anybody to disagree or point out any flaws!”
