Boehner walks, guarantees rating downgrade for the USA

The Fed's actions during the Hoover years caused the depression, and FDR prevented the economy from recovering, turning what should have been a bad couple of years into a decade-long nightmare.
 
The only reason the government would default on the loans is if they didn't pay the interest on it.

You fucking act as if on August 2nd, they don't have a CHOICE to pay the interest on the debt, and NOT PAY something else ... thus NOT defaulting.

But then again, you are a durab fuck Liberal, and can't possibly fathom that sort of complex thing.
 
thats such a load of bullshit though.

we don't want to hire fulltime workers, we want temp workers.

we want to have people there only when they are working hard.

we want a lean mean fighting machine and we got it.

trouble is, the political economy hasn't kept up, and theres the matter of what to do with the tens of millions of people we don't need...
 
and...if you want to blame the uncertainty behind the regulations...what about the negative impacts of uncertainty regarding the solvency of the government?
 
i mean, the debt limit was raised a bunch of times in the previous admin, and there is no 3rd party actor outside of the usa mandating this deadline...


its the usa sticking a gun to its own head.
 
So such uncertainty doesn't affect full-time hiring?

Really?

Since when?

A Temp is someone else's problem when it comes to taxes, bennies (if any), insurance. So in an uncertain environment, they're ideal. You pay 'em for the day, then show them the door.


You can't honestly believe that costly, restrictive mandates have no effect on hiring, can you?
 
I'm not in favor of Boner's actions. We need to do this...but we need hard guidelines for fiscal change, not lip service.
