They’ve been itching for any bad economic news since, hmm... Late 2000 I’d say.

Before then it was sometime in 1991 I think.

Steven Pearlstein, then a Washington Post business reporter and now a Post columnist, wrote in February that "the best thing that could happen to our economy is for a dozen high-profile hedge funds to collapse; for investment banking to enter a long, deep freeze; for a major bank to fail; and for the price of a typical Park Avenue duplex to fall by 30%."

And do we really think it was a coincidence that something quite like this is coming pass? Or was the bozo just reading the script of the fifth column in the US financial industry?

They want a bad economy because they think it is cute. They haven’t had, as of yet, to experience missed meals, St. Vinnies hand-me-downs. They are the information class. They have been educated to ‘make a difference.’ Little do they know that they will be the difference.

New York Times said it “plans to borrow up to $225 million against its mid-Manhattan headquarters building....


I wouldn’t loan them $100 no matter what that building may be worth.

How much longer until the big papers start asking for bailouts? Watch them make some claim about a “free press” being required by the US Constitution.

When are the little people going to be bailed out?

I’ve always felt my credit card company was corrupt and crooked..When do the interest slaves get bailed out?

Some journalists out there seem to be actually rooting for a new economic depression

And I'm helping them get to the breadlines, by not watching them and cancelling all print subscriptions!

Well, Depression Lust is a catchy title, but it gave me entirely the wrong idea about this thread. *sigh* Guess I’ll go back to my vodka tonic and pictures of Keanu.
