Thanks for explaining the entire situation in 4 sentence. Sure clears things up for me.

And don't call me dude. It's so 70s. Besides, I was never into trends and fashions.

One guy even suggesting we’ll all be eating out of dumpsters if government don’t get their way here.

If that happens a fix would still be possible but I’m not prepared to believe thise who caused this crisis right now. A crash might also bring government to it’s knees which is looking more and more attractive to me. We need shock treatment. It’s too late for patches, paperclips and scotch tape fixes. Too many of us want to see a real crisis before we’re robbed again.

If I had it my way, I'd relocate the Federal government to the middle of the Kansas plains, set up Congress and the Senate offices in modular trailers, and only allow them to serve one term to keep the corruption down.

Pay them minimum wage for the honor to serve, and we'll pay for their meals, housing and transportation to and from the Howard Johnson's to their office trailers.

These people need to be put back in their place.

You posted the thread correct? Get over it. You get all the comments. The dude was Buchanan, or what will happen to Dick Morris in another 10 years.

Something’s always going to be booming and busting here on out. Get used to it.

What's the booming investment now?

China is betting that Congress hasn't got the balls to say, " Do your worst."

Why would they do that? Half of our politicians are owned by China.

No problem at all.

Only a very few editorialist left that I have any trust in. Buchanan is certainly one of them.

Cartouche, I certainly understand where you are coming from. If we weren’t talking about financial institutions this large, I’d be right there with you. If we let these institutions collapse, there’s going to be a chain reaction that will cause you to wish you had never voiced that opinion. Look, that’s how I see it. I’m no sage. You may be right. I appreciate the comments.
