dozens of times, nearly a hundred times under presidents of both parties. again, it s work that you have to do for no benefit. you get nothing positive for doing it. but if you don t do it, fiery financial disaster on a national, and indeed, international scale. it s like if you have a backyard at your house or your apartment and you decided you were going to keep a pirana-filled lagoon right there. then you could tell your kids not to fall in and get eaten by the pirhanas. why would you do that?
