→A thanks and additional suggestions before becoming a featured article
This subject is nowhere near my area of expertise or interest really, but these are a few things that pop out at me. I read the article because I noticed it was nominated for a featured article. Good luck! --[[User:SharonW|SharonW]] 19:35, 28 July 2011 (EDT)

:The history can get complicated rapidly; the nation existed for 130+ years prior to a ceiling, and ''why'' certain legislators and constituencies felt the need need for a ceiing. This gets into a discussion how the Civil War & Panama Canals were financed, for example. [[User:RobSmith|Rob Smith]] 19:45, 28 July 2011 (EDT)

::As I said, this isn't my area of expertise, so I'm not completely up on the history of the topic, and I was just presenting my first(ish) impressions of the article. I dredged up some of my admittedly foggy memories, and thought having the article explain that this isn't the first, or the only, debt crisis to occur in the nation's history might be a good idea. --[[User:SharonW|SharonW]] 00:44, 29 July 2011 (EDT)
