Perfect. Obama and Boehner are doing an excellent job of what they are paid to do: transferring the wealth of the USA to Wall Street plutocrats. They've given the sleazeball so-called "rating" agencies the cover they need to demand higher interest rates. No new taxes. No new jobs. I can't believe that folks who are in their 20s and 30s aren't throwing rocks at people my age (late 50s) for our generational greediness. By the way, I had a six figure federal tax bill one year, when my cofounders and I sold a startup. Maybe I'm an aberration, but I was proud to be able to chip in that much to the government that paid for ARPA back in the day.

It's no use to throw rocks at you people. I guess it's not so much the fact you 50 and 60-somethings are relatively very well off by profiting from the situation until now that makes people angry (hey, a lot of you worked hard as well for it), it's the fact a lot of you are so cavalier and casual about it, and like to dangle that fact in front of our noses all the time. In any case, I do hope you enjoy the fact you're rich, at the expense of your own children. Well played I guess. If you haven't got any children, perhaps you need to be kind to that girl changing your shit-filled diaper in the elderly home.
