Drawing a vivid analogy, Democratic Representative Brad Sherman from California compared the impending scenario to the “Wild West on Wall Street.” The thought of America’s bustling marketplaces donning a “closed” sign, while international bourses throb with activity, sends a chilling warning to stakeholders.
Sherman passionately opined, “We are flirting with the edge of a precipice. It’s inconceivable to even ponder crippling American capitalism while the world watches.” Echoing this sentiment, he and his fellow Democrats are fervently rallying to convince House Republicans to pass the crucial budget.
