I have another question. What if a person gets direct deposit on the 1st of the month. This statement by *The President* and from what I read in the newspapers indicates that checks issued on August 3rd cannot be guaranteed

Does this only affect checks on August 3rd, or does that affect people who get their checks deposited on the 1st of each month?

if someone can answer this, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks much

UPDATE!!!!

Never mind. I just called Social Security. They explained about getting one's check near the Wednesday of one's birthday. So I'm supposed to get mine on the 3rd. So in essence, if *The Government* or someone doesn't raise the debt ceiling, we're all screwed.

Oh My God.
