the right forcing down grading of nations credit rating

the latest reports are that Boehner aka boneya plan will not satisfy cuts needed to keep our credit rating up. The money lenders want at least a 4 trillion dollar cut or revenue increase to hold our rating.
come on now you idiots running around blowing hot air must realize that if the world banking system lowers our credit rating all hell will break loose in this country.
who do you think its going to hurt ? the little guy of course! how about those businesses that are marginal? kiss them good bye! how about the families who are living week to week!
oh you think your safe! like hell! the fall out will effect us all!
unless you have several years of income stashed in your back yard you will be a victim!!
what happens when chaos sets in? inflation! how high has inflation gone in other nations that have gone through this? 10%,50%,100%,500%! that stash you have could be worthless inside of a month!
can't happen= it did in greece, spain,Romania,poland,japan,russia and several other countries in the last 50 years.
DON'T ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN HERE!

1. First thing that needs to go:
Congressional, SCOTUS, and POTUS paychecks. After all, aren't we suppose to share the sacrifice?

3. the only solution is

for congress to get off their ass and do their job! that isn't to have a mexican standoff for political reasons but to get together iron out their differences and negotiate a bill that will safe guard the voters and this country!
right now we have a media circus that is creating havoc! a congress that cannot or will not
communicate and an electorate that is surely going to react if they don't get off their ass and do the job we sent them to do!
at least thats my opinion! and I feel I'M IN THE MAJORITY!
