There's that little catch phrase "full faith and credit" again. At 14.3 trillion would you make a loan to a communist based economy country? I know for certain, I wouldn't. As it stands now, I wouldn't purchase a $25 bond knowing the possibility of ever seeing it again would be like expecting Obamakov to make a 180 ideologically, just won't happen.
Sanity must prevail and if it means not loaning another nickcle to a corrupt fat slob federal government than so be it. Furthermore, if they were so concerned about the full faith and credit of the US, than they shouldn't have borrowed and spent so damn much money from the get go.
Screw'em!
