Remember----Obama Care nationalized student loans as part of the bill and the Feds only had to borrow 56 billion to take over the loan program. Every loan payment is now counted against the cost of medical care ( because it is in the bill) thereby justifying the new lower/break even costs of care. You are right; total fiasco.

*sigh* This entire "crisis" is manufactured. Our debt to GDP ratio is not to the point where we should be doing this in a bad economy. Both parties have it wrong, but it is absurd for the Republican talking heads to suggest that this is a time to cut spending. Exactly wrong.

There is no crisis and there is no systemic risk to the US economy.

This is not 2008 not even close. Bank earnings are strong and loan losses are dropping.

This is a cash sitting on the sidelines issues. No one wants to invest capital because of the political environment. This will be settled when Comrade is pushed out of office next year.

Equities are cheap, companies have delevered and inventories are low.

That is precisely why tax cuts for the rich (AKA "job creators") does not work. The money needs to be put into the hands of the people who will spend it. The problem is not supply. The problem is demand.
