Eric Cantor Makes Debt Ceiling Offer


Why is Eric Cantor allowed to do anything with the debt ceiling? Heck, why isn't he in jail. We learned last summer that Eric Cantor made several investments that only make money if the U.S. defaults on its loans. And those are only the publicly-disclosed investments. Who knows how much (and he's likely not the only GOP Congressman with these) offshore investments he made that are betting the U.S. will default. This is the ultimate example of insider trading (and outright treason) why the main guy preventing any sort of meaningful debt ceiling compromise or action is the the who stands to gain the most if it all fails. That'd be as dumb as letting the oil companies right the safety regulations for oil rigs- oh wait, Bush and Cheney already did and that's how we got the BP oil spill (because 100 billion in lost Gulf revenue was so worth the two million they saved on an adequate blow-out preventer).
