That country is insane. They did this in 2008 as well! The latest is a procedural vote at 9:45am. What this means is the market opens (it hit the limit down in about 3 minutes for futures this afternoon), and probably craters. Then the Senate will vote and I guess we'll see if they have a change of heart? Truth really is stranger than fiction!
I hate to predict anything, but my guess we limit down and get halted for 15 minutes and then the vote takes place. The vote I saw earlier tonight was 47-47, and they need 60 to pass this. Maybe they held another vote after that, I'm not sure, but you would think getting support to average people would be a no-brainer.
