Ron Paul says default on debt unavoidable

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.
Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) on Tuesday predicted that the U.S. would default on its debt.

"When a country is indebted to the degree that we’re indebted, the country always defaults," the 2012 GOP presidential candidate said on the House floor. "We will default because the debt is unsustainable."
