maybe because action is needed now, and not 3 weeks from now?
I was at a local bank today and credit has dried up completely. Talked to the VP and he said they cannot get home loans underwritten right now and no credit issued for anything and this is a locally owned bank.
Then I went to get my car serviced at Toyota and they are concerned come Monday if nothing is done, no more car loans.
These are regular people that understand how important it is to get something done now. I have an email from Cong Mary Fallin that says the same thing and none of these people are alarmist.
