If the Congress & Senate is ever serious about developing a budget, they would start this at the beginning of each year. The left has never seen a social program that it does not like and the right a tax break it cannot justify. So it's really about political campaigning and little to do with governance. The Tea Party has now made this a political blackmail.

So the debt ceiling needs increase to keep up with inflation. Throw in an war or two and a few natural disasters, deficits grow even more.
