It would be optimum to know by Tuesday but I doubt the symptoms of this will happen that quick.

I do bet the Stock Market will continue its controlled crash as this is likely one of the big reasons it lost 1000 points last week and is likely to continue the same trend in the foreseeable future. Chit is no doubt unraveling now.

An interesting piece of information is that the Military received 700 billion in this last budget. That's the most lump some the military has seen since WW2 and they only have till October to spend it. Makes you wonder what "war" they think they are going to be in. The entire Iraq and Afghanistan wars since 2001 cost approximately 1 trillion dollars to fund. So this 1.3 trillion budget to pay for the government until next October more than half of which is for the Military. DC must know something the rest of us don't because there is no way they would have passed this budget with that type of increase unless something was going to happen.

Almost forgot to mention that this budget also has 200 billion for "pension bailouts" wonder whos pension systems are going to need bailing out in the next 7 months.
