It is a no win situation on the ponzi scheme the treasury is running. Raise the debt ceiling and trash the dollar by printing more money forcing the world to remove the dollar as the reserve currency or default and watch the whole house of cards come tumbling down. Cash in your dollars before you have to use them to start a fire to cook your broth over in your cardboard hovel by the freeway and buy Yuan. Save your fish carks you will need the to make soup.
