Adding debt will only make it a bigger problem long term. I'm fairly young. Old people need to sacrifice now.
We have bills for services we've already bought we have to pay. The Tea Party is saying we can't pay them. I do blame the Tea Party for this impasse on raising the debt ceiling. The budget and future spending is a different matter.

It's like telling your utility companies that although you've used enough electricity, gas and water last month that you now owe them $200, you've decided your debt ceiling is $100 so you won't pay for what you've already used.
