Morning Summary, 7/5

The holiday is over and now it is time to get back out there, so posting will be light.

A quick scan of the news doesn't appear to reveal anything significant.

A thought before I leave rather hastily, because there is not much time:  It occurred to me that these debt negotiations aren't going anywhere.  That's because the politicians are only interested in the show.  They can make this look really big and generate a lot of interest, but as far as actually doing anything to solve any problems, the answer is no.  This is going in the politics schmolitics file because of that.  There is no real interest in doing anything here.    It is intended to get each sides supporters revved up so that they will contribute to their campaigns.

If they really want to do anything, they would make serious proposals.  There aren't any.  It's all a game.
