If Obama takes us into default, all political calculations, essentially become moot.
You know that debt crisis we often discuss, when exactly will we have that ‘Greek’ moment? Well, a default would be it. Runs on the banks, unrest in crapholes like Newark and Detroit as soon as the EBT cards register empty.
The chips will fall in an uncontrollable fashion after that, and its unlikely the media will have much influence in such chaos.
One outcome of that which you can be absolutely certain of.
Obama becomes the Herbert Hoover of this century. Nobody will remember who the House speaker was.
What should I do in that case? Should I start looking for a farm or a ranch or a church to live with? I was thinking that because I wondered if that is all that would be left - no restaurants, no schools, no sales companies, no universities, no malls, no stores of any kind would be open to provide jobs so I figured it was find a farm or a ranch or a church I can somehow live with or end up homeless and killed by rioters. I wish I knew where to start in finding some sort of farm or ranch or a a non federal park or a church where I can live or work because I figure that otherwise, one way or the other, I will be dead in a few days.
