I'm tired of the lie that we'll default if we don't raise the debt limit. We have billions coming into the treasury every day. We have plenty to keep our debts current and perform the constitutional responsibilities. Everything else comes after.

It's called a prioritized spending plan. List expenses. Prioritize from most important to least important. Start at the top, keep moving down, and stop when you run out of cash. The lie that we'll default if we don't borrow more is silly. Yes, there will be pain. So ask the American people to find the pain and help their fellow Americans.

You obviously have not have drank enough Kool-aide yet. Everybody knows when your credit card is maxed out the best way to get out of debt is to increase the debt limit....../s

Agreed. We will not default on the debt if they fail to raise the debt ceiling. There is more than enough revenue every month to pay the interest on the Tbills. There will have to be a prioritizing in order to do it. Its about time. We have to stop it at some point why not just take the pain now?
