The bill is in. I guess it may buy some time to prepare for the total collapse. My advice would be to cash in everything and plan for survival in the looming complete disater. There is no way out of the box except monetizing the debt. Buy now for the next several years at least. I think the kooks and survivalists were right and I amn joining them. This ponzi is going down. Escape plans are in order.

"“We are in a time of crisis, and doing nothing is not an option,” Mr. Kanjorski said."

So doing something really, really bad is the preferred option?

Leaving the market alone isn't "doing nothing" -- it's letting hundreds of millions of individuals decide what to do. It seems people need to be reminded of that.

Politicians need to find the courage to do nothing.

"He cited Democratic leadersÂ’ failure to allow bipartisan input into the bill, CongressÂ’ failure to spend enough time preparing the bill, its lack of enough money for road, bridge and infrastructure repairs and construction, that it didnÂ’t provide enough help for retired or unemployed Americans...

So he opposed it because it didn't have ENOUGH spending and pork in it. Wonderful.
