Instead...they simply keep raising it EVERY time. They have never followed it as it was intended. And if any politician actually grows a set of balls and tries to NOT raise the debt ceiling, they are immediately trashed as not being "grown up" and trying to "shut down the govt." (although the govt. has never "really" shut down and never will).
