Question: What Do You Think of America's Debt Deal?
President Obama and Congressional leaders finally hammered out an 11th hour deal this weekend to prevent default on Tuesday.

If both the Senate and House approve it, then the country will have missed defaulting on its debt this Tuesday with an 11th hour deal prepared by President Barack Obama and Congressional leaders from both parties and announced over the weekend.
In the deal, one of the main stumbling blocks, the ability to increase the country's borrowing limit, will have been lifted.
The agreement, if approved, would include at least $2.4 trillion in spending cuts over 10 years, a new Congressional committee to recommend a deficit-reduction proposal by Thanksgiving, and a two-step increase in the debt ceiling, according to an article in The New York Times Monday morning.
