3 reasons why the debt-ceiling debate is full of malarkey
Bookmarked 752 weeks ago
all anybody in washington can talk about these days is the debt limit or debt ceiling -- the total amount of money the federal government is authorized to borrow at any given time after a decade in which spending increased by more than 60 percent in inflation-adjusted dollars and the debt limit was raised no fewer than 10 times the government is about to max out its 143 trillion credit line leading to fears that washington is going to default on its bonds stop cutting social security checks and destroy the economy more than it already has but the current debate over the debt ceiling is full of malarkey for at least three reasons 1 august 2 is a phony deadline treasury secretary timothy geithner has pushed back the drop-dead date when the us finally reaches its limit a bunch of times already: march 31 april 15 may 31 were all cited as deadlines before august 2 was inked in as armageddon but this time he means it man really 2 reaching the debt limit is not the same as defaulting on our debt -- which would indeed be catastrophic think about it: you can max out your credit cards but as long as you keep paying the minimum amount due each month your creditors don039t go crazy interest on the debt is a small fraction of total outlays and the government has a series of tools -- from using cash on hand to selling assets to scrimping on nonessential payments -- to make sure interest payments are made and seniors aren039t put on an all cat-food diet 3 legislating-by-panic is no way to run a country the reason we039re in this mess is because government can039t stop spending and the government can039t even pass a budget on a year039s notice but we039re expecting them to come up with a good plan for the country039s borrowing in a couple of weeks trying to force through an expansion of the country039s credit line by promising cuts in spending down the road is exactly why we039re in this situation to begin with it makes far more sense to do something like sell some tarp assets -- the government is sitting on 320 billion in outstanding direct loans and equities investments -- to cover interest payments through the end of the fiscal year then force congress and the president to come up with a budget that cuts spending -- and borrowing -- for real next year not is some distant futurefor more information check out nick gillespie039s 5 uncomfortable facts about the wonderful horrible debt-limit debate: http:reasoncomarchives20110708five-uncomfortable-facts-aboutand mercatus center039s jason j fichtner ampamp veronique de rugy039s the debt ceiling: what is at stake: http:mercatusorgsitesdefaultfilespublicationdebt20ceillingderugyfichtner42811pdfabout 235 minutesproduced by nick gillespie and meredith bragg edited by joshua swaingo to reasontv for downloadable versions and subscribe to reasontv039s youtube channel to receive automatic notifications when new material goes live
