It's preventing Obama from implementing any of the rest of his agenda so it's all good. The admin is also too incompetent to set up the Obamacare "exchange" websites so Obamacare will get delayed for a year as well until its eventual implosion.
Yeah, that's not going to happen.
OP you watch too much MSNBC. Even if no deal is made there will be no default on Thursday. If there is a default on Thursday, it would be because someone in charge got their panties in a wad and is trying to make a point.
Zero fucks given. I can't wait for the stock bargains available in a couple days, though, if we do pass the deadline without a resolution.
Did you cash out your investments?
That's a tough nut to swallow. A basic total abandonment of your market investments because you think the US is going to default.
The market has barely blipped down because most people realize there won't be a default.Well I didn't either but I'm seriously debating it. I think the market dropped 600 points at the credit downgrade in 2011. This should be much worse. Why ride it out?
I'm a libertarian, this blame does not touch my hands. I'm hoping to Republican party implodes, make way for real conservatives without the Bible.
BTW I know we won't, it's satire.
So what happens if nothing happens?
Still think a deal will be made but I just don't know how the GOP is going to manage to bring themselves to swallow their pride in order to get it done. I have trouble believing that the top Republicans are really this inept. I know their base is, I know their policies are based on bad data and logic, but for the leaders to be this catastrophically foolish? Just doesn't make any sense to me. I understand the Tea Party crazies in stupidly safe districts not giving a shit, just not the establishment GOP.
I wish that's what my parents wanted to do.Hell no I didn't, I'm fully expecting to pick-up some bargains in the near future, however (provided the ceiling isn't raised and the usual suspects on Wall Street panic).
There are many threads explaining how foolish it would be for Dems to cave. It rewards bad behavior thus making that behavior become the new status quo. I have no doubt that the Dems will end up throwing the dogs a bone but I think even that is a very bad idea.The democrats could also swallow their pride to and give in to some of the wants by the republicans. It takes 2 to create a stand off. 1 side has to budge.
