I think that the debt ceiling is actually unconstitutional. The congress spent the money and now don't want to pay. They want to use it for political purposes to trick people into blaming the president of the united states. Rather the congress needs to pay for what it has spent, not hold social programs and the poor accountable for there actions. The republicans created all of this mess with in the 8 years under bush. They controlled both house's and spent like drunkin sailors and used war and fear to do so. Now they want to b-tch.

The 14th Amendment

The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
