Raising the debt limit just means agreeing to pay the bills for what
they have previously spent. Not raising the limit is like you deciding
not to pay your bills for what you have already bought.
Funny how the deficit ALWAYS skyrockets when the GOP is in power. They
are really good at giving huge tax cuts to their rich and corporate
bosses and cutting any spending that might actually benefit the American
workers, and then whining when the Democrats are in power about "deficit
spending" that seems never to be a thought when the GOP is in power and
chopping the US tax income by cutting taxes for those who need it least.
