I agree with RedStang.
But I would like to emphasize a little.
It affects ALL lotterys if 350,000 people nationwide decide to cut back on lottery spending because they are NOT getting paid.
Also, if DC is not paying now,
Does that mean the other 50 states, will have to stop paying if they cant get money from the treasury after the deadline?
What if this tea party people cant get their tea bags out of their own asses fast enough to compromise? (These conservative are quite tight in their beliefs)
Does that mean that the states will have to start issueing their own money, because the Federales dont want to own up to their reponsibilities? (That might not be a bad idea since the states should use the money for good, and are not always striving to invent new fictional wars 24/7.)
What if Obama will not compromise, because his puppet masters never intended him to?
How will this global fictional money scam result if the scammers decide to play hardball?
My guess is a new and improved scam, from those trying to undermind the ORIGINAL scam.
The most logical consequence is for the states to assume the responsibility of the federal government by issuing 50 differnet currencies and saying STFU to the warmongering Federal Reserve. Of course those creating the chaos probably are wanting order in the AMERO. A NWO type currency, similar to the EURO.
If they default, I hope some of these republicans are correct in that "NOTHING" will happen.
If something bad happens, I prefer instead of firing 60% of congress, that 60% of congress should go to prison.
If something good happens, then these tea party conservatives should be sanctified. Let them be the next FURHER or MESSIAH.
But that remains to be seen.
This is some IMO some possibly Major Twilight Zone Sh!t.
Or perhaps I am only supposed to be brainwashed into believing that its serious?
Who can you believe?
Frankly NOBODY!!!!
