I will never vote republican again, at least under its present form. The rationale for the current disagreement hinges on a MEDICAL DEVICE TAX? Are you fucking kidding me? Pardon my language, but I couldn’t contain myself. This sort of barbaric thinking is the reason why this country is being led down the toilet bowl.
The best case scenario is we punt this until February, setting up for an early 2014 market rout. Worst case scenario, the god damned bible thumping republicans willingly destroy our credit worthiness. I do not want to hear about the 14th amendment or how we will not default, since we have enough cash to “cover interest and principle expenses.” The fact of the matter is, we do not have a budget. During this morning’s Citigroup conference call, they bragged about not owning short term treasuries.
THIS IS ABSURD.
If they hang the nation, I will be laughing as I swing–because I ain’t selling shit.
