The US is the country that has a debt limit to decide whether the government should default. or others, there is a budget process, and an authroization process. The debt of the US should be paid pursuant to the constitutional provision. After this fight, the law should be challenged.
=========================
The US will NOT default. It never has done so, not even under Trump.
As with authorization fights, the government will first close down government offices and not make Social Security payments, and other payments. After a week two, this silliness would be over.
THAT BEING SAID,
the Republicans will likely to be willing to risk closing the government as a tactic when the budget and budget appropriations are up for a vote.
