Once again, Democrats fear monger and threaten in order to continue the spending that will bankrupt this country. The US Treasury takes in approximate $250 Billion per month. The interest payment is $30 Billion per month. It's not rocket science. You handle the nation's finances just like families do. Prioritize the things that must be paid and cut spending where necessary but he bills must be paid first. It's time for grown ups to take charge and for cooler heads to prevail.
