Debt Ceiling Showdown: Obama, Boehner Diverge On Demands


14th Amendment:



Section 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.



"The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned."



The debt ceiling is unconstitutional, and should be ignored. The United States must pay its debts authorized by law. Defaulting on the public debt would be unconstitutional.
