Why Can't Washington Pols Be More LIke NFL Negotiators?

Reader Comments

Both the NFL owners and players had a common interest to play another season and were able to negotiate in good faith to come up with solution. Both sides can continue to make money if players and owners can play another season and keep the NFL a going concern.

In the crises about raising the debt limit, we have one side that doesn't want a positive outcome. The Tea Party aka the Koch Bros want to collapse the economy. the Tea Party and Republicans don't see any advantage to keep this country as a going concern and seem to be happy to cancel the economy for another year till the next elections. These snakes are happy to screw the country - these guys want to see the economy fail and millions more to lose their jobs. The only way that a nut like Adolf Hitler came to power was when Germany was in complete economic collapse. So get used to saying Heil Koch!

People should ask the representative to act on their behalf instead of working for the Koch Tea Party.
