I suppose this action is consistent with the GOP philosophy to stop programs they oppose by starving them to death. In this instance, by delaying approval of an increase in the debt limit, which will be required to even meet the budget the GOP has proposed and voted to approve, the GOP has placed a spending priority on interest. The more they play brinksmanship, the greater the chance of pushing up interest rates. The more money that we have to spend on interest, the less money there is to spend on those socialist ideas like social security and medicare.
