Will extremists from both sides force the USA to default on debt?

If so, it will negatively effect all Americans.

Extremists are like spoiled children. They want everything their way or no way. They are the biggest problem in our country. They are a bigger threat to our nation than China and Russia.

Those who support extremism fuel the extremist politicians.

Our nation was founded through compromise. It has existed for 250 years because of compromise. We cannot let a bunch of spoiled children ruin our nation.

Unfortunately, our "system" (ha) is set up to incentivize and reward the worst impulses of its participants.

So what we're getting isn't exactly a surprise, nor is there any motivation for them to change.

We have to Fix. Our. Fucking. System.

There will be bitter progs who will be furious with Biden and the "moderates" for getting played like this, but the alternative is worse and they know it. They'll probably threaten to not vote for it but will ultimately vote for it.

It's the ultra-MAGAs that worry me. I think McCarthy probably could have driven a little harder and gotten more but is probably desperate to put this behind him and wanted to build in an extra day or two in case the extremists in his caucus rejected the first proposal.

The power of is shared by 3 branches of government, executive, legislative and judicial.
For the debt ceiling, the executive and legislative must work together.
It took both Biden and McCarthy to come together and find a compromise. They did the best they could.
It is the extremists on both sides who could cause us to default on the debt. It will be on the extremists, not Biden or McCarthy.

Since we have never defaulted before, we don't really know what would happen. It may not be all that bad as long as it shuts down the 400 or so government departments that misuse our tax dollars and the politicians. That's a good thing, don't ya think?

Since it's the leftist vermin that are making the most noise about the possibility, I'm thinking it might not be so bad a thing.

Extremism is creating the largest debt in human history

Question is, when can we get the radical extremists out of power?
 
They will make a deal as the alternative is not pretty. So deals will be made and the crisis averted until next time. Perfect opportunity to have someone to owe you one.

But the far left doesn't want a compromise they want it their way and their way only... and Joe will get hit by the libs for caving...

If the government defaults on it's debt, there is no doubt the US credit rating would go down. That would result in paying higher interest on debt. That would add billions to the debt.
How would the stock market react. Safe bet not good.
Who would not get paid?

There can be nothing good of defaulting on the debt.
It is one thing to be in debt, it is another to quit paying your debts.
Not paying your debts has bad consequences for individuals, legal entities and countries.
Take a look at what happened when to Argentina when they defaulted on debt.

All a bunch of scare tactic bull... default would be the best thing to happen because we could begin the rebuild of our economy and pass laws preventing this kind of over spending in the future... handing the do nothings in DC another blank check is only going to increase the pain down the road.... and hey!... being 60 or 70 will not necessarily keep you from feeling it... that's how fast the train is coming at us....
 
Yep he was the only one whom added debt. All others before always paid it down. Got it.
No one has paid it down since Clinton and Newt... Trump had a good reason to spend... He had a failing military and a virus to deal with....
