Here's a really good one from bloomberg video (doesn't work if you have adblock enabled for the page). Trish Regan sits down with some very major CEO's (UPS, Honeywell, Blackrock, NASDAQ) to discuss what they would do about the debt. They make a ton more sense than anything I've heard out of a politician in years, or for that matter, anyone else, especially the self-anointed analysts and commentators.

that means we have a deal! Now it's just putting our people to work to get to the details! Hilarious if it didn't make you so sad how dysfunctional both parties are at governing. Sure, they fight for "principles" EG, siphoning off our money to make the rich richer - only a matter of which ones, sometimes, they are actually in total agreement that the banks that got us into all this trouble must be saved as the status quo. Kind of tells you who actually owns our government.
In a two-fer, here's the inimitable Hugh Hendry too:
