Signs of investor uneasiness in continuing to purchase treasury securities issued by heavily indebted sovereign states such as Greece, Ireland or Portugal have triggered a debate about raising the debt ceiling here. Newly elected Tea Party republicans in the House of Representatives have made out of control growth in government spending a point of attack on incumbent democrat legislators a rallying cry in their campaigns since fall 2010 and insist that any legislation to balance the Federal Budget over the next few years must rely solely on reductions in Government spending and transfer programs. Democrats insist that some significant portion of any deficit reduction package must be based on closing tax loopholes and increasing marginal tax rates on wealthy households (income greater than $1 million). They also argue that although credible deficit reduction measures need to be put in place soon, the actual phase-in of those measures must be gradual and await a strengthening of RGDP growth in the US economy.
