Debt fight could spark recession. Many economists expect a recession if the debt ceiling isn't raised.

"Economists"

Spark a recession? Hmmm.

Part time jobs.
Low wages.
Inflation.
Higher taxes.
Criminal taxes.
Idiots who can't even pass a budget.
An even bigger idiot spending trillions.

Man, it's like, it's already here! It's almost like the recession NEVER FUCKING ENDED!

Congradufuckinglations economoists! You have proven that four years of accounting and finance classes have done nothing for you. If you can't see the shit that is up to our necks already then you have picked the wrong fucking profession.

They are liars, we are in a depression!!!

If the government keeps raising the debt ceiling then the issuing power of the new money belongs to the banks and is taken from the people to whom it properly belongs.

All your base are belong to us

The government has not released a budget in years

Bring it.

Economics exists to make Astrology look respectable.

Recession? My ass...

We are already in a Great Depression.. so this will be a Greater Depression.

Are you Depressed, bro.. or are you OPPRESSED?

This I could believe.

the Science of Physical Ecomonics (unlike the Political Economics mythos) starts really with LAND control.. who controlls what square foot of Land..

The unsolvable hard problem of the Science of Physcial Economics has to do with who has the right to say who has the right to own what land or lands...

The only thing that has ever been discovered in answering that Hard Question is "Might makes Right".

Its all really about LAND.

Solvent companies/organizations release a budget every year would you have faith and invest in anything that did not have a annual budget and a forecast not dependent on raising its debt ceilings while shutting down part of its operations so it could make it to the next hand out?

Good point.

Imagine an Olympic judge who scores points by watching film of a pre-recorded event, where the entity who recorded the event is able to digital edit whatever outcome they desire before turning the film over to the judges.

That is basically what economists do with their "scoring" of the economy. The Central Bankers engineer whatever outcome they desire and sometime later economists come out of their offices with all the statistics they performed and predictions they have after evaluating the fraud.

Sparking a recession??? What have we been in for the past few years?
Things surely aren't improving the way that the "growth charts and phony numbers " that obamanomics would have you believe

Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining !
There is no way that the economy has improved with the job markets the way they are.... The president's republican shutdown is probably the most responsible improvement in our economy since he took office

I hope the republicans have a spine and hold their ground on this and the imaginary debt ceiling that has been surpassed a hundred times more than it ever should have been

Like a bored housewife with no more credit cards...FFS STOP SPENDING

If the economy was improving why would they still need Ben's fake stimulus money?

CNN?

Exactly

There... Fixed it for ya.

Is anybody aware that needing all the people working is the sign of a Nation under stress. One where 90% are not working and they still have the same basic needs to sustain life then that is one that is thriving. You just have to reset the mindset of the 10%v that are working that they do not deserve 100% of the material things in that society. The 90% can replace the 10%, it does not work any other way. One meal every two days is quite fine when you are 'on vacation' as you have other things to do. The ones needing lots of energy eat when they need to and that could be 3 times every day they work. That is when creative things like art can be explored, before that art was a creative spear-point.

The fed will never stop.


U can count on that.

who are these "economists"

for us to even have discussions about raising the debt ceiling ad infinitum means the economic system is broken beyond repair.

and these butthole economists are worried about a recession?

what a bunch of tards

DO NOT give in to the Cleptocrats, keep fighting.

Let it collapse.

I hope this shit keeps Obama awake at night.
