Умер Том Клэнси. Можно по-разному относиться к его книгам. Но ни в здоровом американском патриотизме, ни в трезвом взгляде на окружающий его мир Тому Клэнси не откажешь. С его уходом мир вряд ли станет лучше. Как-то так.

Нобелевский лауреат вещает  посредством NYT:

On the economics: Republican radicals generally reject the scientific consensus on climate change; many of them reject the theory of evolution, too. So why expect them to believe expert warnings about the dangers of default? Sure enough, they don’t: the G.O.P. caucus contains a significant number of “default deniers,” who simply dismiss warnings about the dangers of failing to honor our debts.

А вот еще, очаровательно-большевистское:

Ironically, considering who got us into our economic mess, the most plausible answer is that Wall Street will come to the rescue — that the big money will tell Republican leaders that they have to put an end to the nonsense. But what if even the plutocrats lack the power to rein in the radicals? In that case, Mr. Obama will either let default happen or find some way of defying the blackmailers, trading a financial crisis for a constitutional crisis.

Ало, Нобелевский комитет, так ведь можно и до мышей...
