Ted Yahoo. In an email he wrote

We need to get the full government up and running again, but to do so everyone must be willing to bring something to the table to negotiate and settle differences as our Founding Fathers intended.

Continuing to spend irresponsibly and increasing our debt limit will only serve to prolong the problem. Choosing not to raise the debt ceiling means the government will not have the authorization to continuing borrowing money it cannot begin to pay off. Government can and will operate without raising the debt ceiling.
