debt ceiling

it really boggles my mind that something like 60% of polled americans are opposed to raiseing the debt ceiling, and also that a plurality of voters view obama as to blame for this debt ceiling crisis.

so i am curious not so much as to your opinion on what is going to happen, but as to your opinion on how the american people, or people across the world will percive it? do you think that americans are really stupid enough to fall for the republicans destroying the economy to make obama look bad?

Your analogy is false. The US economy is not a cancer. If anything it's the healthy cells we want to protect from cancer.

This too is a false analogy. Government spending is different than a typical investment. Risk assessment on investing in things like war, education or making medical care more affordable is damn near impossible and clouded by politics.
