I’m more envisioning the sabotage of government programs that are relied on by millions of americans creating real civil unrest and violence

I talked to a friend yesterday who works on Wall St., and he said that we’d probably keep our spot as the standard world currency because, in his words, ‘we’re the only game in town’ and as unstable as the dollar may become it’ll still be more stable than just about any other currency on the planet.

He says the downside is that everything - everything - will cost more. Again, in his words - ‘it will cause a lot of pain in this country.’

I don’t look forward to it and hope someone duct tapes Cantor’s mouth shut and throws him into a broom closet until the deal is done. He’s determined to wreck everything.
