What changed on Friday? NOTHING!!!
The American business economy is STILL just the same as it was on Friday August 5th.
The HIGHEST GDP of any single country in the world.
The US fiscal policy is not great but our economy is fine, fine, FINE!!!
We have a chance in a short while to deal with the fiscal policy. Vote in a new congress and 1/3 of the Senate.
A final thought; and here I speak of the "Tea Party". If you ACTUALLY believe in acting on your beliefs and principles then be prepared for pain. Personal pain. There are COSTS associated with standing up for what you believe in. So if you voted for "Tea Party" candidates then stop your whining about the drop in the DOW, and the downgrading of the US debt by Standard & Poors, because THEY are the ones who facilitated the happening of all of this. Argue if you want, but that's a fact.
So, in spite of the discomfort and pain, this MAY not be such a bad thing. Our fiscal house desperately needs to be put in order and if this is the pain we have to suffer, well, we'll just have to grin and bear it.
