How many times do we have to go through this meaningless showboat exercise before people start ignoring it? The debt ceiling will be raised, the spending was already approved. Not raising the debt ceiling would send interest rates right through the roof and the debt payments would still be in force, just way more expensive.
Even congress-critters aren’t that dumb.
They raise it and hit it on the same week
I am not sure if you understand how the United States debt is currently structured. Your predictions are basically a fart in the wind. No one can predict the long-term consequences with any degree of accuracy... certainly not you or me. You are merely repeating the same old talking points that the big spenders spout out every time it looks like they might not get their way.
