Yes, as you're defaulting on what you owe. Several credit agencies have made this point recently.

we owe " domestic spending"? I think not

it's a gift, not a birthright and not an obligation

So, the fact the US credit rating could drop from AAA to D is not a worry? Standard & Poors says this would be worse than the 2008 financial crisis, where, you know, the global economy nearly collapsed. And this is good why?

the premise of your argument is wrong, I simply don't reach the same conclusion. Bringing fiscal responsibility to the table will not cause our credit rating to go from AAA to D, although it probably belongs closer to D already.

and I don't think the global economy was anywhere near collapsing, a bunch of hot air there

The feds supposedly saved the economy by increasing liquidity for banks so they could lend money, whether they needed liquidity or not. What did the banks do? did they lend it out? NO

they sat on it, and they either repaid it quickly or they're sitting on it today

obviously, somebody was sadly / badly mistaken

Willie has more patience that I thought.

You're talking to the same brainwashed kid who defends bank bailouts and Ben fiat printings to death.

It's the same brainwashed kid who thinks without bailouts the financial system would come to halt.

It's the same brainwashed kid who thinks Gov is a solution for everything.

It's the same brainwashed kid who now argues without raising debt limit, the US would default on its debts.

The same kid who thinks the Gov owns every pennies you have in your checking/savings.

It's the fucking commie that we know all along...........

My premise is being fiscally irresponsible will be disastrous. Do people really disagree with that? And, for the 3rd time, are you saying Budget Chairman Ryan and House Majority Leader Cantor are wrong in saying the debt ceiling must certainly be raised?

Kicking the can further down the road is not fiscal responsible.

Borrow and spend beyond our mean is not fiscal responsible.

Devaluing the US dollar is not fiscal responsible.

Printing our way out of this mess is not fiscal responsible.

But I have my suspicion that the debt ceiling will be raised because at the end of the day, the US is run by a bunch of crooks. Fiscal responsible is not in their dictionary.

Any question Alaskan piece of shit?

The debt ceiling will be raised once there is comprehensive deficit reduction reform. So if you believe reducing the debt is fiscally irresponsible, you just may be a bigger lump than I originally thought.

Yeah right.

They've been talking about deficit reduction in the last 30 yrs.

What have they done? ZERO.

You're delusional, naive, and utterly brainwashed.

You're just like majority of American, you're a fucking sheep.

Gov is a solution for every aspects of your life.

Get a fucking life loser.

Oh and by the way, the Budget Reconciliation Act of 93 was a deficit reduction legislation, which created a budget surplus several years later. So yes, it has been done the past 30 years.

I love the ceiling cliche but do we ever stop to think where we are at this point and time. We are in the storm shelter, the celler, the basement, we have hit rock bottom and are hiding from the elements. What needs to be done is obvious but once again Obummer has to divide this country some more and play theatrics with the same old "the curtain is about to close" routine. When you don't have any answers you should just STFU. Obummer and his fellow obsructionists continue to destroy everything that once made us a great nation. When will the Democratic members in DC wise up and realize Obama is not going to get a second term. In the end they will go down the tubes with him, just like in 2010.

Snoop has major problems in his life. He is fun to mess with but his lack of being able to hold any intellectual conversation is lacking and gets worse over time. He's pure comedy gold though!! Never knew someone that stupid existed!
