All of this discussion about the debt ceiling has been crazy. It seems like many in congress are more interested in party lines and their own interests instead of doing what's best for the country.

Dont worry. Somebody will come up with a solution. I sure hope so!

No surprise there then.

By a 9-1 margin the economists expect a deal will be reached to raise the debt ceiling in August. However, of the 46 economists who answered the question (nine survey participants chose not to respond to the query), 23 said the the vote should be tied to spending cuts, while the other 23 thought linking the two is a mistake.
