Governments all over the world are looking at us and shaking their heads. Boehner just surrendered to the crazies in his caucus and now we're in for another kick in our economic balls. Get into cash before October 15th.
Sure, because God forbid the government actually curb spending and balance the books. You know, like responsible citizens do.
