Discuss: What Do You Think Of the Debt Ceiling Deal?

Add your thoughts to the discussion.

The House of Representatives passed legislation Monday night to raise the nation's debt ceiling while cutting federal spending by $2.1 trillion. The action came a day before the deadline to raise the ceiling and avoid defaulting on the national debt. The U.S. Senate is expected to pass the legislation Tuesday with President Obama signing the bill into law on Tuesday.
