The debt ceiling has realistically only ever been used against us in the modern era. Republicans consistently use it during dem presidencies to get some policy concessions, while democrats are largely unwilling to return the favor. Not to mention that it's simply bad policy — there's a reason that our peers in the global economy are not replicating it in their own governance.

If our opponents want to get rid of the debt ceiling we should get on board. It will help us so much more than it will help them.
