Despite Obama administration warnings that failing to do so would devastate the economy, a clear majority of Americans say they oppose raising the debt limit, a new CBS News/New York Times poll shows.

Just 27 percent of Americans support raising the debt limit, while 63 percent oppose raising it.

    If your son or daughter spent money on your credit card like Congress, you would not even consider raising their limit. You would cut up the card.

    Which is exactly what we as citizens should do to politicians' ability to spend: remove it, and permanently.
