[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Dems will use reconciliation to raise the debt ceiling and avoid default, right? [/quote]

They should just do it and add in all the spending they want including the 3 Trillion for infrastructure.  If Republicans don't want to play ball then they don't have to get anything for their states in the bill.  Obviously a giant bribe will have to be made to WV but that's fine.  They should also remove the debt ceiling in the bill so that this is never an issue again.  The debt ceiling is an artificial thing creating in the 1900's.  Prior to that, any spending that there wasn't enough revenue for was automatically borrowed because there was no fake limit.

Or worst case scenario, Biden can go back to the platinum coin playbook.  During the Obama years I saw people saying we should mint a two trillion dollar platinum coin.  I just googled it and now they're saying one trillion.  If I were President and we were about to default, I'd go for 10 trillion.  You're already breaking with tradition so F it.  [/quote]
