The Bishops speak on the debt ceiling debate

I will be providing the link to the USCCB website and the letter written to U.S. House of Representatives.  You will notice in the letter the emphasis caring for the poor and marginalized and a balanced approach that seeks collaboration and cooperation for the common good.  If you are reading this and you are Catholic how does the Bishop's letter align with your beliefs and opinions?  And this begs another question:  do your politics align with Catholic social teaching?  Are you more concerned with the teachings of the Church or rather do you cling to a narrow political ideaology?  Food for thought at mid-week as the debt ceiling crisis goes on.   Please read the entire letter:
