Great job as usual, centrists!

When the alternative is letting the freedom caucus shut down the government and have a catastrophic default that hurts everyone, then yeah it is good news. The fringe right and left think the world is already burning, so don't mind if it completely blows up. I don't see it that way. There is still lots to enjoy in life for most people. Unfortunately the republicans control the house, so they are going to get some concessions. The democrats working with the more moderate republicans has almost completely neutered the far right freedom caucus, and that is a positive development.
