74
Number of times the debt ceiling has been raised since 1962 — 10 times [PDF, p. 20] in the last decade, usually with the votes of Republican leaders, including today’s House Speaker John Boehner, House Majority Leader/tea bagger Eric Cantor and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell — all of which is more evidence that the current controversy about raising the debt ceiling is just bogus politicizing of a non-issue by right-wing extremists who want the government to fail.
