The Art of the Debt Ceiling Deal
THE ART OF THE DEBT CEILING DEAL by Dave Whamond, politicalcartoons.com
Whamond documents the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023—the deal that averted default with days to spare—as another temporary suspension of the debt ceiling until January 2025, kicking the crisis into the next Congress rather than permanently resolving America's chronic debt governance problem.
