THE BORROWING LIMIT IS THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF MONEY THE US GOVERNMENT IS ALLOWED TO LEGALLY BORROW TO PAY EXISTING OBLIGATIONS, INCLUDING WELFARE AND MEDICARE PAYMENTS, MILITARY PAY, AND INTEREST ON PAYMENTS. TAX REFUNDS AND PAYMENTS TO FEDERAL EMPLOYEES. IF I WAS A POSTAL WORKER, IF I WAS A FEDERAL EMPLOYEE, THAT WOULD SEEM, YOU KNOW, MY PENSION TO BE APPLIED FOR THE NEAR FUTURE. I WAS REALLY ANGRY WHEN CONGRESS DID NOT DECIDE. YELLEN SAYS EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES NEED TO BE TAKEN TO LIMIT THE EXPOSURE AND BUY THEM SOME TIME. THIS MEANS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL NEED TO MOVE MONEY TO CONTINUE PAYING INTEREST ON TREASURIES, INCLUDING SEVERAL OTHER PAYMENTS THAT MILLIONS OF AMERICANS COUNT ON.
