So, by the way, why should we listen to those members of Congress or those that serve at the pleasure of the President? They are also political animals, concerned about the next election cycle. If we shouldn't listen to those who are suggesting that we can survive a technical default with limited impact, why should we listen to those who suggest that the consequences will be "catastrophic"?
