When children throw a temper tantrum, they usually end up breaking something. Mom's dishes or dad's sports memorabilia isn't quite on the level of the US Economy.
Republicans are far more likely to oppose raising the debt limit than anyone else; they say don’t raise it by 61-25. Republicans, however, also believe overwhelmingly that not raising it would cause serious economic harm — by 66-27.

There's no contradiction there. One can believe that serious short-term harm would occur by not raising the debt ceiling, but that it would be less harmful in the long run than continually going deeper and deeper into debt. That's called nuance and an ability to think beyond the obvious.

"The Fed is the greatest hedge fund in history,” Buffett told students yesterday at Georgetown University in Washington.
Gosh, I thought hedge funds were Satan's own tool to destroy our economy?
