"Shutdown took $24 billion bite out of economy"
The 16-day government shutdown took a $24 billion chunk out of the U.S. economy, according to an initial analysis from Standard & Poor's.
As a result, the rating agency projects that the U.S. economy will grow 2.4% in the fourth quarter -- as opposed to the roughly 3% growth rate predicted prior to the shutdown.
The hateful teabagging motherfuckers merely continued doing what they've done from day one and that's do whatever it takes to fuck up the country's recovery as long as Barack Obama is president.
