I sure hope so, but many of them actually seem to believe that defaulting on our payments will show the world resolve to get our debt under control, and too many people are counting on Wall Street to swoop in and save the Republicans from themselves. Problem is, they've put people like this into office: <http://www.businessinsider.com/ted-yoho-on-the-debt-ceiling-2013-10> If enough of the shoggoths on Wall Street have insulated themselves from a market crash, they may have decided to follow Mellons's advice to Hoover: "liquidate labor, liquidate stocks, liquidate farmers, liquidate real estate... it will purge the rottenness out of the system. High costs of living and high living will come down. People will work harder, live a more moral life. Values will be adjusted, and enterprising people will pick up from less competent people." "high living" like eating more than a few times as week, having a roof over your head, etc. My really big fear is that they've decided to do this, because they're just arrogant enough to believe they can get away with it, hopped up on their Randian fantasies. My REALLY really big fear is that the unintended consequences of this stunt this will make WWII look like a minor skirmish. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "StrataList-OT" group.
