I don't have a clue if this will effect Pm's or not, I just worded it like that to keep this info here in the section where all my favorite posters post.... http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/fast-fi...2631956.htmlThat is the lowest in history by the way, I knew these weasels were taking a beating in every blog I have read of late. How do they respond after wasting months debating an pointing fingers, essentially slapping a band aide on a gaping wound, something a four year could have done. Then they go on vacation....  Who grabbed that bill, oh well we did eh.... Hope you don't get to burned, or sun poison, or eaten by a shark NOT! Man that would make an interesting new episode for shark week 2012....

86%? Seems low! I don't think it will have any extra effect that the debt spiral and high unemployment levels won't already have.

Yeah John with this AA talk and this rating info, one would think Pm's will shoot through the roof next week, but ever time I think that is a sure thing to happen, the opposite seems to occur....
And that 14%, how hard would it be to look them in the face with a strait face and have a debate with these rocket scientists without cracking up and saying sorry, but I can't converse with you any longer, lol....

Well, the biggest threat short-term to PMs in my opinion is the huge discount you can get on stocks at the moment. I know I did a lot of buying low today (for long-term retirement). I really think that the PM market already adjusted for the coming credit rating drop (or has it already come?). For PMs, I'm bearish short term (few weeks) but bullish long term. But what do I know?

Well, I for one know that this country is in a heap of financial trouble. Have any of you ever seen what one trillion dollars in physical cash looks like?!?! Good God! And some US debt estimates (including unfunded liabilities)range up to 70 trillion dollars or more!
We have no leaders with cajones and any 'fix' they come up with will either make the problem worse or will be very, very painful for people to live with (i.e. restructuring medicare/medicade/SS, etc...) because a lot of people are dependant on government money. This crap has GLOBAL implications.
Either way it is a win/win for PMs. However, as has been said a million times, you can't eat gold/silver. Invest in storable foods first!

All it takes is another Reagan-like leader to begin to get us out of another Carter-like trouble, and there goes a big drop in PMs. How likely is that? I don't know, Which is why diversity is so important!

90% of the people surveyed must have been working stiffs.

You know this is a useless poll and number. The majority of the same people will be reelected based on the fact they have been able to take your tax dollars and spend them on some unneeded project in their home district. Half of our buildings are named after a dead congressman but yet the largest city has been in the Financially Distressed Municipalities Act since 1992.
So what do you have more faith in? A politician, the dollar or gold & silver?
Something has to give it just does. So while PM's might not jump on the news of this poll they certainly may jump because the rating shows the lack of trust people have in them getting us back on the right track.

So, when did it drop? Some months ago, congress hit an ALL TIME low approval rating of 9%. Yep, single digit approval rating. One would think that this would sink in at some point. If not, then a voter applied 2x4 up-side the head will have to do. Come to think of it, the 1st application of that occurred last Nov. Clearly, additional applications are needed. |
