How true that is.
People saw that the government might actually know how to keep it's fiscal fly zipped and they started to get some hope.
I noticed that all the whining and crying about potentially being downgraded all got quiet after it happened.
NO ONE CARES.
Yeah...I noticed that the sky didnt fall when that happened...
And then the whole "concern of the negative ramifications" disappeared.
So what was it?
Oh yeah...'the Tea Party is taking the country hostage and it is going to force a downgrade which is going to be a terible thing for us'
Seems the Tea Party didnt hold us hostage...Seems to me the Tea Party was correct when they said..."so, we get downgraded. We deserve what we get and we will learn from it"
Sadly...it doesnt look like anyone learned from iut.
