| I'd like to pay this in, please writing college admission essay President Obama and his aides have flatly said they won't negotiate on the debt ceiling. "The president is not going to negotiate over it," senior Obama adviser Dan Pfeiffer said last week. "The days of debt ceiling brinksmanship are over, so put that aside." Republicans, meanwhile, are still trying to figure out what hostage they're going to demand in exchange for raising it. This would directly risk our economic well-being, mind you. "You'd never be able to reverse" a debt default, High Frequency Economics' Jim O'Sullivan told Bloomberg, adding, "You'd probably always have a little bit of an extra premium" on U.S. obligations. And Republicans will frame this threat to the economy as being necessary to counter growing deficits which we know to be imaginary.
