2. At the very least interest rates will go up exponentially
that is the least bad of the consequences.
Today a certain host in[sic] the financial channel suggested an IMF rescue package, where the nation looses[sic] quite a bit of independence. Given that happens everywhere else, I would not discount it.
At that point the austerity plan will force things like cuts in SS payments, privatiization[sic] of things like Amtrak, the firing of government workers, as well as freezing of salaries. Oh the end of certain subsidies and essentially the rape of the nation. This is based on IMF history everywhere else. As they say.. roost and birds.
Incidentally this also means the end of the USD as a reserve currency and of course of the American Empire.
Yes it could also lead to a wold[sic] wide depression.
Reality is... will be somewhere in between, my view closer to armageddon.
Nutcase nadin needs to note that the United States contribution to the IMF is more than three times that of any other nation, and essentially the IMF does the bidding of the United States for that reason. The main purpose of the IMF is to give a few hundred corrupt politicians a chance to escape their third-world hellholes and move to Washington as IMF "executives". In that regard, it's very similar to the United Nations.
Nadin also needs to note that aside from Social Security payments, which will not be affected regardless, the rest of her "armageddon" would be welcomed by a large portion of the American electorate.
It is just another know-it-all rhetorical mishmash, though, since none of it will actually come to pass.
But more important, what about the milk? What about the radiation streaming across the Pacific onto the old growth forests?
And how about all the new democracies in the Middle East? Or Wisconsin? Radiation leaks in America? The total destruction of the Gulf of Mexico? Armed insurrection in the streets of America? Exploding ground water in Japan? Mass suicides among Japanese business leaders? Nadin promised us all this and more.
Nutcase nadin flits around from one armageddon to another so quickly, none of them ever gets resolved.
I don't think our language ever considered the need for a plural form of "armageddon". Is it "armageddons"? "Armageddi"? "Armagedda"?
Having them all hit us in the span of a single year is sort of exhausting. There really should be a limit of one armageddon per decade, but
nutcase nadin has given us four here in a single year, and we have five months to go. This could be a seven-armageddon year.
It's really strange, as well, that every one of these civilization-ending calamities is solely the fault of a soft-spoken retired fellow living
somewhere around Dallas, Texas. He once held great power, and when he did, everyone had a job, the economy was expanding, muzzies were
being killed at a record pace, and the world, in general was a happy place. Now he's retired, throwing out first pitches, writing memoirs, and staying out
of the public eye, but somehow is to blame for the disastrous results of his successor's blunders.
Someday, know-it-all nadin needs to get on the google, and explain it all to us.
