It does suck in that nothing changes, Obama gets another $1 trillion to blow, and we were never going to default anyway - 14th amendment prohibits that from happening and Congress had already passed a bill that would have taken care of that. The senate and Obama used the willing democrat operatives that are our media to scare people - again.

That doesn't mean that the shutdown is over. What about the House?

The only thing keeping the economy even slightly afloat is interest rates. When they go up, and that will happen probably sooner than anybody thinks, the stock market is going to take a big giant dump. Watch and learn young padawan. |

I would imagine they have already rounded up the votes. This sort of thing is coordinated tightly. Can't stand the leadership of either party, they are all bloodsuckers.

This Video was posted over on CF politics today, if you don't care to sit through the 30 minutes (IT IS WELL WORTH IT BTW), here are a few Cliffs:
1. The Government Creates Glorified IOU's. Treasury Bonds. These create the National Debt and puts the people on the hook to pay it back. 2. The Treasury sells the Bonds to the Banks. The Banks then turn around and sell the Bonds (National Debt) to the Federal Reserve for a Profit. The Federal Reserve then opens its Checkbook which then buys these Bonds using a Checkbook that has a zero balance. So essentially, the Federal Reserve is buying IOU's WITH IOU's. When those Checks (IOU's from the Federal Reserve) are given to the Banks, currency is created. This is how 'Money' is created. Start the Video at the 18 minute mark, and it will explain the whole cycle, it's very interesting. http://www.hiddensecretsofmoney.com/videos/episode-4 |

How to fix our debt ceiling issue... RAISE THE DEBT CEILING!
BUT... it'll only be for a little while, unless we need to raise it again. |

The dollar doesn't buy shit anymore, that's for sure. I have been really feeling the devalued currency in the last 18 months badly.
