Meckler was firmly against raising the debt ceiling, and dismissed consequences of it not passing. On President Obama’s contention that Social Security checks might not go out, Meckler contended: “That’s just simply a lie. There is plenty of revenue to pay our Social Security obligations. There’s plenty of revenue to pay our debt, our interest on the debt obligations. If the president and Secretary Geithner choose not to pay Social Security, they’ll be held responsible. They’ll be held responsible by recipients, and they’ll be held responsible by the American public.”
