It's important to pay attention to who in Congress votes no on the debt ceiling bill regardless of whether they are on the right or left because what they are telling us with their no vote is that they don't care if the US defaults. They don't care if social security payments, veterans benefits, any sort of government assistance stops or if people's 401K's take a nose dive. That's what defaulting will mean and the extremes on the right or left in Congress don't care if they vote no.
