The right answer: Debt ceiling does not mean default. According to the Constitution, the Federal government can not default on it's debt. The President will be impeached if the government has revenue but refuse to pay obligations on it' s debt. Thererfore, when the government hits the debt ceiling, it's has to prioritize it's payment, obligations on the debt gets paid first. So, there will be no default in the foreseeable future. But the government has to stop paying a lot of other people until the revenue and spending is balanced . If the congress does not do anything now, the Fedeal government budget will be balanced immediately. Guess what happens, the Dollar strengthens after the initial turmoil calms down. Imagine a balanced budget, no more government borrowing: the interest rate will go down significantly, private sector investment goes up, fewer people live on welfare, more people work, economy booms, corporate profit goes up, stock market booms, tax revenue goes up. That is why the Tea Party does not want to raise the debt ceiling under any circumstances.

The difference is I don't think there will be a default on the Federal Debt even if the debt ceiling is not raised. You think there will be.
