While most of the world is recovering economically, the US continues to flounder. Greece is highly unionized. Result? Chaos.
Is that our trial canary? We know that tax cuts work. Please feel to help with informative / shocking links regarding economics, government budgeting, what triggered the meltdown, Obama-nomics, and/or Greece.

Financial Meltdown Reprise

US financial meltdown on 9-11-08.
Is the date of the financial meltdown just a coincidence? I don’t think so. From the short video in the article:
On 9/11/08 at 11:00 am in the morning, $550 Billion was withdrawn from US money markets in about 1 hour starting an electronic run on the banks.
The Treasury pumped $105 Billion into the system, but quickly realized they could not stem the tide.
They then decided to close down the money accounts and announce a $250,000 guarantee per account to avoid further panic.
They believed that if they had not done that, then by 2:00 pm that afternoon (9/11/08) $5.5 Trillion would have been withdrawn from US money market accounts collapsing the US economy and within 24 hours the world economy.
This was a deliberate attack on the US. [End quote — I agree]

Burning oil rig aside — note it is British Petroleum. Why is it that there is any space left for a BP oil rig in the gulf?
All this BS about “Big Oil”. It’s CRAP! We aren’t aggressive enough. Why? Enviro-wackos. I wonder if British Patroleum had contributed to Sierra Club, etc? A way foreign oil interests can meddle with US politics.

Question regarding Oil Spill: a new well could be dug deep beneath the sea in 90 days. Remember when rats complained that new oil rigs would take FIFTEEN YEARS? B.S. Just regulatory stumbling blocks.
