They NOW claim that not voting for the raising of the deficit AND RAISING TAXES is RECKLESS but REFUSE to acknowledge that the WILD spending by lunatic ideologist OBAMA and his administration is EVEN MORE RECKLESS since we can get around a default. We have had our government shut down a few times and under REPUBLICAN captainship came through with flying colors - NOT A DEFAULT!
And we are still financing IMF (International Monetary Fund) with HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of tax dollars and to support GREECE in the BILLIONS, the UNITED NATIONS in billions AND while we cannot pay for essential roads and infrastructure in the USA we are paying some 150 BILLION to RESTORE AND REPAIR, REBUILD MOSQUES - YES, ISLAMIC BUILDINGS IN EGYPT AND ELSEWHERE WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!!!!

During the last Presidential election, CSpan2 Book TV aired a program where the author discussed the results of his or her research, which suggested that something like 5-10% of Democrats , and 5-10% of Republicans, essentially debated and defined the ideological constructs of each party. The point was that the vast, vast, vast majority of the citizens of this country have their lives dictated by the most active and vocal members of society, who also happen to be more privileged .
I strongly suspect that the same thing is occurring with the debt ceiling debate. The debate is not really about the debt ceiling per se, but rather a very deep, long-standing debate about the role and size of government. It’s never been resolved, and never will be resolved in our representative democracy. However, in the mean time, the regular folks in our society run the risk of being irreparably damaged. The elites (the upper and upper middle socio-economic classes) on each side of the fence have theirs, their corporate contributions, decent jobs and income, and will fare just fine economically. It’s the ordinary citizens (lower middle socio-economic class) who will most likely get screwed, no matter which side ultimately prevails in the short term.
