House Passes Latest Continuing Resolution, Sends To Senate Which Will Reject: Government Shuts Down In Three Hours

Tyler Durden's picture




 

As almost everyone expected, the House just passed the stop-gap bill,
with its individual mandate delaying amendment, which was also the third Continuing Resolution passed by the House, in a 228 to 201 vote. Surprisingly 12 Republicans voted Nay and 9 Democrats voted Aye. Off it goes now to the Senate. But, the moment it broke on the wires, Harry Reid has his response:

  • *SENATE MAJORITY LEADER REID SAID SENATE WON'T PASS HOUSE PLAN
  • *SENATOR REID SAYS HOUSE REPUBICANS WANT TO SHUT DOWN GOVERNMENT

So it looks like we are heading to a government shutdown tonight (and for now the S&P does not care one little bit).

 

Harry Reid's response from the floor was that "House Republicans "have lost their minds" for sending another measure to delay ObamaCare" and concludes: "House Republicans want to shut down government." 

Below is a live stream from the Senate:

haha USD slams through 80, USTs sold off (Asia - Japan/China liquidate).  No wonder congress are fretting.  Downgrade coming. Krugs, yo, so let me get this right.  You want the Fed to be the stop gap.  Correct?  Ok, so if your beloved China and Japan (actually almost commie, yes, I know they own over 90% of the own debt...fancy that!) liquidate USD denominated holdings (can you blame them), the 10yr gets thrown to the wolves, Yelland charges in and buys the whole 10yr market.  I've got that right?  Right? 

A beautifully Keynes induced debt default (with large dashes of communism), just like Greece!  Problem is the ECB is backstopped by the Fed.

Yup.  Personally, I think if it comes to a failure to raise the debt ceiling Obama will just declare "emergency powers" and do it himself.  Nobody will even challenge it in court.  Congress will be grateful (though with one less Constitutional power) and the spending will continue unabated.  Wall St. will celebrate with another round of QE and new, more exotic derivatives contracts.

The Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard will still be operating. The IRS will still be working to steal all your money. The Fed will continue creating $85 billion a month out of thin air to line the pockets of the giant banks and the banksters. The lamestream media, which is the propaganda arm of the U.S. government, will still be lying every minute of every hour of every day. The NSA will continue spying on everyone. The TSA monkeys at the airports will still be playing grope-a-dope with your children's private parts. The police will still be eating donuts and busting into the wrong houses. The firefighters will still be fighting fires. Most government contracts will continue to be enforced. The prisons will still operate.

Meanwhile CIA boys keep performing they dirty work and Maduro has had enough:

"Out of Venezuela," the leftist leader shouted, then added in English: "Yankees go home!"

Maduro said a group of embassy officials that his government had been following for months was "dedicated to meeting with the Venezuelan extreme right, to financing it and feeding its actions to sabotage the electrical system and the Venezuela economy."

"I have proof here in my hands," he said, though he did not offer any details on the diplomats' alleged transgressions other than to say they met with opposition and labor leaders in the southwestern state of Bolivar, which is home to a number of troubled state-owned foundries and Venezuela's main hydroelectric plant.

10 points of prosperity.

1.     Disengage from the BS of things that provide little value to you personally.

2.     Keep focused on harnessing available energy, redirect inputs to change dynamics more to your liking and longer term survival.

3.     Be proudly judgmental of the people you keep about, build good teams through trust, get better, kick ass, and compete. Don't arbitrarily kick someone to the back of the room because you don’t agree with them unless your highest value in friends is they be good at ass sucking, at the same time don’t fear planting a wood stake in the heart of a vampire if need be. Best thing is to disengage from Bull Shit, then you don’t have to go through it. Some may call this “conflict avoidant” and get into fights with people who argue the point, thus wasting time stupidly.  

4.     Don’t disturb Sheeple by trying to wake them all up, It wont work, you will waste too much time, also be not gluttonous in their consumption all at once, think about sustainability and act according.

 5.     Actively participate in the balance of nature. Become a hunter/huntress, kill your own meat, invite your vegetarian friends to hunt with you, often vegan friends will help out a carnivore bud, many love the smell of gunpowder and are good shots.

6.     Make gardens happen/preserve and store food in good times to get you through the bad, share with your vegan buddies who you go deer hunting and drink beer with.

7.     Express your creative sovereignty - Be Honest and have fun as: an Artist, Musician, Craftsman, Story Teller, whatever you want, make the call. That is the point, make the call.

8.     Develop and maintain physical capability – This is a mental and physical health  fact of nature. Physical fitness is essential. Does not matter whether you are a quadriplegic bound to a wheel chair or X NFL star with a big beer gut. It is a choice of attitude.

9.     Program yourself - Accept responsibility as your own creator.

10.   Be most proud of your humility – Appreciate the beauty of Irony for such is life.
