"content": "The editorials in the major dailies from early this week were about Parliament’s irresponsibility in adjusting the debt ceiling. Let the message go out that Parliament has not yet concluded the process. The process is only concluded when the Senate agrees with the National Assembly or when the Senate renders an opinion on the matter. When the two Committees that you have rightly appointed to look into this matter report back to this House, I beg that we shall get an opportunity to debate. In the other House, the matter was put to vote without very serious debate. I beg that in this particular case, even if we will be required to sit here until midnight like we have done in the past, the country will have an opportunity to hear what the elected representatives are saying about this issue of debt. There is an American philosopher who said: “Blessed are the young for they shall inherit the national debt”."
