American Crises

I am becoming increasingly worried about the U.S Shutdown crises. And my desire to lynch those idiot Tea Party memories and knock some sense into them is growing by the day. I can’t avoid the feeling that they are perfectly willing to let the U.S economy go down the drains only to screw Obama.

According the latest C.N.N news update, there is no deal in sight. (No deal in sight ).

Now normally, the political and economic crises of other countries would not have worried me this much. But I recall well how the Mortgages bubble burst in 2008, and how it dragged the whole world down – the Israeli economy sustained no little damage in that time. We did better than most countries, since the economy was stable prior to the crises, but still, hundreds of employees were fired – myself included.

So, despite the fact that Checkpoint is considered one of the most stable company in the world, and despite the fact that Checkpoint never performed a major Layoff – even in 2008 – I can’t help be scared that this time will be deferent. Unless those idiots will just make a settlement and reopen the government and avoid the cliff.

Again, can I just kill them, please? And I thought out politicians were selfish idiots.

Chances are very, very high that some sort of agreement will be reached before the default occurs later this month. Seriously, none of the people in the know think that the default is going to happen. There was some progress made today, although they didn't release a lot of details about it. Also, the stock markets in the US have been very stable throughout this whole thing. It may be another temporary agreement (that's more likely than not), but the end of the world won't happen this week.
