    I have T-bills. What happens if the U.S. defaults?

    They won't "default" - the priority will be to pay on the paper, then pay defense, then whatever is left will go to SS, medicare, etc with shit getting cut after. As long as the outstanding paper is < 100% of GDP there won't be a default.

    AMZN Brutally Assaulted by CA

    Your analogy is moronic and has no relation to the current topic - a logical fallacy at its finest. Let me clean up your analogy: yes, it would be unfair if the dentist just down the road paid no city or state taxes, thus reducing the cost of his services the amount of taxes he didn't have to...

    Groupon Is a Straight-Up Ponzi Scheme

    I hear this from a lot of SMBs that have used groupon: the groupon customers are one-and-done. Can you afford 20-30$ each time the same customer comes in just to keep them coming back? That's a better comparison...
