It’s interesting to see on FR that people believe that exceeding the debt limit will cause the government to quit spending money. It will cause them to quit borrowing money, but it won’t cause them to quit spending it. They won’t have as much to spend, but they will certainly be taking care of their Democrat constituents first. They will also reluctantly continue to service the debt.
You miss the point they will not spend if it will cause trouble they want trouble. Look at how they are spending now selecting those things which will cause the most trouble. They want chaos and confusion.
