The debt ceiling may have no meaning.
But crippling the IRS certainly does. That's what this is really all about, The only way these people can be stopped is to threaten their money. I say give the IRS the resources it needs to get these leeches to pay their taxes. That alone will help the deficit. And if they insist on crashing the economy then so be it.
Call their bluff, or they'll just be back next year to shake us down with something else. And they will continue coming back, year after year, with new ransom demands, new hostage takings. Now that blackmail has been shown to work, it will become their new tactic whenever they want something else.
And you know they never have enough. They always want more.
