John Boehner and Eric Cantor`s personal investments are making more because they placed their bets against America. If the debt ceiling was solved easily like it was under Bush they themselves would not make as much money. They are hedging against America.

John Boehner and Eric Cantor hedged (invested) against America. Just by giving the debt ceiling a hard time their personal portfolio so-to-speak profited from drawing it out due to the fear. I warn you now, they are going to do the same thing with unemployment extensions.

Should people solve their personal debt crisis by not paying their credit card bills?
@Rico: You’ve been terribly misinformed. Consumer debt is lower than it was in 2009 but nowhere near historically low. It’s more than double what it was in 1999.

John Boehner`s personal portfolio is making more money dragging the debt ceiling out instead of just raising it like they did under Bush. Republicans are hedging against America.

Eric Cantor`s personal portfolio will also gain if the ceiling is not raised. Not surprised they would bet against America. Please save the threat response, think before you speak, facts are facts.

I see a lot of discussion about the government’s finances, but what about the more important budget — your own?

Are you carrying any adjustable rate debt?
Have you made any defensive changes to your 401K?
Did you free up any cash to shop on 8/2 if Wall Street has a 40% off sale?
How about making or delaying major purchases?
Gold?

John Boehner and Eric Cantor both profited in their personal portfolio more from the fear of giving the debt ceiling a hard time that was raised easily under Bush. If you hedged (invested) against America you are doing great. What is the excuse Republicans give? “Don`t be mad because Boehner predicted that Obama would mess things up”. Regardless, Boehner is in a power position to profit himself.

That`s right if the debt ceiling is not raised Eric Cantor and John Boehner`s personal portfolio will gain. Or in short they will make money off the ceiling not being raised.

It should be against the law for a politician to be in a position of power to bet against the country.

John Boehner and Eric Cantor are making more money giving the debt ceiling a hard time in their personal investments. Even if the debt ceiling is raised they would have made more money then when the ceiling was raised under Bush. Most Americans don`t know that politicians can make money off decisions they make at work. Conflict of interest if you ask me.
