Couple that with reading some of the posters here who think Obamacare has caused every single issue the country faces and that the stock markets might somehow react positively to there being no deal next week and its pretty clear which side knows nothing about money and economics.

Nobody ever said Obamacare has caused every single issue the US faces. All anyone said is that there is a cost issue involved. And the US is struggling to pay its bills.
The same thing should be said for virtually every single thing the US spends money. The last 50 years of spending money like a bunch of morons have caused this issue. Now they'll have to sacrifice.
