Push it to the Limit: US lawmakers dance with economic disaster

On today's episode of Intrigue Outloud, Mark Zandi joins to discuss the debt ceiling: why it exists, why it's become such a political lightning rod, and what might happen if US lawmakers fail to raise it in coming weeks. Mark Zandi is the Chief Economist at Moody's Analytics, a regular contributor to The Washington Post, Philadelphia Inquirer, and CNBC, and the host of the Inside Economics podcast.
