I would like to add to my belief.
Please consider the following.
How would a US default benefit 0bama and his party ?
I’m not talking about a Civil War, I’m talking about the process that will allow him to gain greater control.
The first reaction to a default would be an almost instant and substantial devaluation of the US Dollar.
This “reset” of the US Dollars standing as the “worlds” reserve currency will be lost.
In turn, US manufactures will experience a huge increase in demand from oversees. This will allow 0bama a victory in achieving a doubling of output.
These manufactures will need to hire to meet demand and will also be more willing to pay the extraordinary tax to repatriate funds. BTW, they will be hiring more Union “Workers”.
The dollar destruction is just a small part of the process to move US to a Fascist State.
Corporations will fall in line since their profits will likely skyrocket.
There is a feedback loop that will encourage crony capitalism and the creation of a “Workers paradise”.
There is so much more.
This is not yet Communism, it is Fascism with the government controlling private enterprise.
For the greater good.
The first step to political control is the achievement of economic control.
This economic control “MUST” and can only happen with willing participants in the private sector.
First consider two things:
1. - Obama hates the country and intends to destroy it (fundamentally transformed).
2. - Obama has already enacted and imposed Fascism which has gone unchallenged. From the GM bailout to the takeover of student loans and the ongoing takeover of healthcare.
Now let's ask your question - how would a default benefit Obama and the Ruling Class?
First and foremost he gets to nullify the Constitution and essentially neuter and suspend Congress - specifically The House of Representatives.
He get's to ascribe to himself, the power of the purse by so doing.
He can then arbitrarily decide what money gets spent and on what. he can then, with that precedent, raise taxes on his own authority - as he does by using his Alphabets to impose regulations and taxes outside of Congress.
We are moving fast into a time where unless you think and act like a MarxoFascist - you are not going to be able to buy or sell. A hallmark of despotic and genocidal men and their utopias.
That is an interesting idea but I doubt that is the way it would shake out.
