Thanks for this thoughtful and informative piece on an issue that is vital to US survival and almost universally not confronted by policy makers, advocates, media and others. I appreciated the additional details you provided. Every year when the debates rage on "raising the debt ceiling" I ask myself why no part of the discussion ever includes leaving the debt ceiling where it is and rein in spending. Your articles provides some answers to that. Sadly, I think it's going to take an economic meltdown for any change in this condition to occur.

Thank you so much! That's my goal. I want to dig deeper on issues and provide background so people can cut through all the nonsense messaging.
