Question regarding Debt Ceiling [View all]
Do any of you believe the rich people who back the Republicans, and Democrats for that matter will risk their wealth by allowing the country to default on our obligations on October 18th? I cannot believe they would risk their fortunes in what could be an international financial meltdown to make a point.
I may be wrong, and am open to being educated on this subject.
