Oh like the 111th congress? You folks said the republicans should suck
it up and go along. When they didn't you said they were
obstructionists.

They never went along with anything. What R's do best is obstruct,
even when it's in the best interest of their constituents and the
country.

Aren't the Wisconsin democrats shutting down the government?
Where is your outrage?

I like it when Gov't gets shut down. It forces people to confront the
issues.

I wonder what their constitution says about legislators who abandon
their jobs? Perhaps the governor can simply replace them. In real
life, I imagine all they have to do is walk through and spit in the
lobby to demonstrate that they are still working.

The governor is using strong arm tactics to undermine collective
bargaining. It's happening all over the country in areas where R's
only interest is in serving the wealthy and big business by
undercutting unions.

We are going to be entering uncharted territory though. Nobody really
knows what happens when a state files for bankruptcy. How do they
discharge their debts when they don't have the money and they can't
just print it like the federal government does. Will they try to print
some kind of scrip and see if people would take it? Are they just
going to tell their debtors to sue them?

It'll be good if it happens. People will have to deal with the
reality of government going into complete disfunction. All those who
believe that government is evil will be crying like little babies.

We better get used to questions like this because the whole country
has a "Greece" moment coming. I doubt our protests will be as peaceful
as Egypt or even Greece. It might be more like Warsaw 1944 except the
populace is better armed. ;-)

Oh, you mean the right wing is better armed. This is what all the
jerks have been spoiling for. We're going to do a little cleansing in
the USA?

There is going to be a counter protest at the Wis Capitol organized by
Breitbart. Union/Obama thugs should carefully consider before they
resort to violence the consequences of such.

Maybe he'll shoot some video, doctor it, then claim they've taken
control of the White House.

Should be renamed the Debt House.

Maybe you should rename your house the Loony House.

Loonie house is worth more than a greenback house these days.

Used to be the CAD was 70 cents USD. Now it is $1.013 and rising.

You don't think I moved back to Canada in 2004 by mistake? I could see
the economic collapse a mile away and with INS dragging it
arse....because my old man didn't pay his taxes since 1958 or so... even
though mine were up to date. Plus a 2005 law was coming to make it
harder to manage my Canadian investments from the US. So I consolidated
in Canada.

Made for a no brainier as the tide was indeed turning. Went from 90%
invested in the USA to 10%, converting most of it at about 70 cents USD
to CAD, now they are at essentially par. In Canada, that is a 42%
non-taxable gain as I do not professional trade currency, just made it
worth my while to repatriate.

So in fact my loonie house is worth more than your USD debt house. All
the US government did was scare away a high rate taxpayer.

You moved back to Canada because you were thrown out of the US.

Feel free to stay there or move to Yemen.
