No problem. Congress are no doubt all invested in Bear Funds.

They create the problems, then profit from them.

Thank you so much for an important reminder.

I would not hold my breath waiting on DC hacks to cut spending.

The Super Committee is a sham. The Balanced Budget Admendment vote is a sham. The only option that remains is a collapse.
