we've seen the stock market numbers when they started to talk about a shutdown, the stock market has also lost ground, the dow was about 6% below what it was before. and all of these things have some pressure on the republican party. let me get to the second point you just raised. there is, in fact, you are right that a default does not automatic trigger by october 17th, that is jack lew and the treasury could prioritize interest payments on our debts. but that would mean at the same time, no, this is the important point, it would mean cutting dramatically everything else the government owes, to social security recipients, to medicare recipients in other words, millions of people would be jeopardized even though creditors would get their money. this would be only by a couple of days. >> any prioritization will take care of the entitlement payments. medicaid, medicare, social security payments.
