This is quite the interesting debate and one of the worst show of partisan politics. You really cant blame the the politicians cause both sides think they have the support of the American people when in reality the Majority of the American people have no idea what's going on.
Honestly I believe the debt ceiling needs to be raised but there do need to be cuts, but where do you make the cuts? The defense budget is he obvious choice but I don't know how much can be cut from there. I am afraid taxes need to be raised. There is no way to get around it, they do.
What is really frustrating is when the tea party patriots butch about tax rates then bitch about losing Medicare/SS benefits, then complain about the can being kicked further down the road. F they are serious about debt reduction then sacrifices will have to be made.
Honestly the best thing for this situation is for the markets to open tomorrow and drop 8% each. People will realize this situation can't be fucked with, and what people think is reality.
