He’s right it has no real value re the debt. But it gives congress periodic leverage against the president, at least when they’re not of the same party

Getting rid of the debt ceiling is the right thing to do.
C'mon, every one say it with me:
Getting rid of the debt ceiling is the right thing to do. -

Debt ceiling? I want a frigging balanced budget amendment that only allows the drawing of new debt in a case of a full blown emergency with 70% Congressional Approval.

The debt ceiling forces critters to vote to raise it, and I think it was intended to chasten spendthrifts. It hasn't.
