what does that mean for the average person? kron4's financial expert said the impact would be rising interest rates. that rate would go up, meaning you'd have to pay more each month. if you're paying student loans, those loans would get higher and getting approval for a new loan would go from hard to harder. it would likely go up to 6%. experts say the market would get crushed. losing about 30%, which is why some say this would turn into a global economic crisis. but most insiders believe things like social security and active military will still get paid even if the u.s. does default. i'm grant, kron4 news. >> residents in belmont are on alert. that's after seven homes are burglarized in one week. take a look at this map. police say the crimes have occurred in the central section of belmont and east of alameda. kron4 tells us who police are looking for. >> the two most recent home burglaries happened on oak null drive on thursday. police say it appears the thieves are breaking into homes between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. when people are
