Why can’t Congress pass a budget?

Congress has until the end of today to fund the government, or at least parts of it will shut down starting tomorrow. One of the primary flaws in our current political system is the degree to which Americans on both sides are tempted to overlook abuses of power when they’re used to advance their preferred agenda. However, the wrong choice doesn’t become less wrong just because someone else made it first. If we’re being honest with ourselves, we probably don’t have to think all that far back to remember a time when we made the same mistake.
