And that silly, meaningless answer
proves you don't understand what the debt ceiling is, what it is used for, how our government finances the 70-80 million checks we write monthly, and the Social Security trust fund, SS funds and what they are, and how Social Security works; and how we finance this country on a daily basis, and what Treasury bonds are.
If you had just the most rudimentary, basic, elementary understanding of the above, you'd never ask why we would have to borrow money to pay out Social Security checks, yet how Social Security has nothing to do with our deficit, but yes, with the debt ceiling.
