Should We Jack The Debt Limit ?

[mudwhistle]

It would help move the discussion if nutters knew what the debt ceiling is.

The Debt-ceiling only matters to Libtards when Obama says it does.

 

[Duped]

How did the country feel about it the last time you idiots did it?

The country hates the thought of it. Please answer my questions. The debt is ballooning - now is not then. I ask again: should it be ever done to thwart destruction?

how would it twart distruction you fool?

 

[Duped]

distroying the full faith and credit of the US is NOT a good choice.

It is a terrible choice - wouldn't it be better than a total collaps though - if they were the options?

please explain to us how that will happen soon?

I did not say it would happen soon. I asked if it should ever be an option - the other option being total collapse?

Congradulations - you make the ignore list!

can you tell us what the debt ceiling in in one sentance of your own words?

It allows us to borrow to fufill our obligations.

 

[Truthmatters]

The debt ceiling hasn't served as "fiscal control" in 30 years.

It's always been raised - it does not have to be. If spending is totally out of control,
and we're on a path to financial destruction, should we default on the debt? Is this a viable last ditch option?

you said it would happen

I'll try to use small words.

If we keep raising the debt it will destroy our credit rating which will raise the interest rates on the debt causing the debt to explode.

 

[Darkwind]

Actually, it isn't. It's a political bargaining chip.

You don't think it's important to pay off your debt? How responsible of you.

Your reading comprehension is a poor as your reasoning ability. I have never said anywhere that we shouldn't pay off the debt.

Sure you did. If you somehow think the debt ceiling is a tool to be used for fiscal control then you certainly don't place much importance on honoring our debts.

If you think we cannot hold the debt ceiling AND lower the deficit and debt, you are a fucking moron.

We can do both. You just don't have the fucking balls for it.

Nope.

 

[Darkwind]

The reason we even face the problems we do is because no one has dared keep the debt ceiling in place since it has been enacted. Raising the debt ceiling is just more justification for spending more money we don't have.

It is just that simple.

Our politicians have already proven they cannot be trusted with a dime, let alone the American budget.

Thwart - my key board is sticking badly. If we were on a path of destruction because we were borrowing and spending more than what we can pay back, and the service on that debt was becoming to burdensome, is denying an increase an option?

I think it's your turn to answer - then me. I love my country - I fear it is being destroyed by overspending - I want to debate the questions I have posed. I promiss I will answer all of your questions, and comment on your good faith remarks.

 

[AmyNation]

Congress has raised the debt ceiling 78 times since 1960.

True.......but it's never been this high, has it?

If you want to become Greece get rid of the debt-ceiling.

The debt ceiling does not curtail spending, congress can, does, and will continue to raise it as high as they want.
