Political Factoid

The stock market tanked
on the signing of the debt
ceiling bill. [2011]
  • Republicans blindly believed it was
    because of the raised debt limit.
     
  • Virtually all economists knew it was
    because the spending cuts would
    destroy demand.
The Chamber-of-Commerce Republicans
got what they had thought they wanted
... and now they deserve it.
