I have overcharged my credit card by a couple of thousand dollars and cannot make anything but interest payments. The CC company called and I told them the solution is simple: Just RAISE MY LIMIT and I will continue using the card which will help me and the stores, and the CC company will continue getting interest payments!!

What's really disgusting about this "deal" is the unconstitutional committee that makes spending decisions in the future as well as the make-believe cuts. They aren't cuts at all but spending amounts that equate to less than the congressional Budget Office baseline budget projected for 2012. The CBO's projected baseline is always WAY over actual spending and is ALWAYS very high in deficit. To say they are reducing spending at almost $1 Trillion over the next ten years, ($100 Billion per year),

Republican and Democratic parties are dinosaurs on their way to extinction, lets hurry up and help them realize their destiny.

Great video, but these guys suck ass at reading a teleprompter.

People, repost this video, with permission; this desperately needs to be seen by more than 3000. Tha count here now is desperate and depressing.

This and the Economics 101 series are essential for our fiscal survival and education thereof.

P.S. 1:44 to 2:11 diminishes its powerful broad efficacy. While I personally agree, I would separate that portion for Capital L target audiences. Everything else here crucially, crucially needs to be heard by those unwittingly drinking the Kool Aide.

Enough Bipartisanship! Excellent video.

It matters because that is what the politicians claim we are preventing by reaching this deal. They say it will raise interest rates. Maybe it will. It says it will cost us an extra $1000 a year in mortgage costs. Trouble is most mortgages are fixed and wont be affected. Further Interest rates are artificially low... Including interest paid to you on your savings and CDs.
