"How many economic gloom n’ doom, “we’re all gonna die, financially”, bull sh*t articles need to be posted here?"

Conservatives generally don't favor censorship.

It's what's in the daily news. I ignore the UFO threads because I don't like them, I suggest you ignore these threads...it's obvious you don't like them.

I'm 66 years old and we're in the worst economic conditions of a lifetime (maybe in the history of the country) and I intend to stay abreast of and learn all I can about the situation.
I will not stick my head in the sand and pretend everything is okay. Many have offered helpful opinions and insightful advice. If you have something to offer, please join in...otherwise, ignore these threads.

DITTO. I am 52 years old, and this financial meltdown had done more damage to US economy than 9/11 and all challenges of the past. Worst, this was a self inflicted diseaster. It is better to prepare for the worst, and if the worst does not happen, we simply pull back from our preparations. On the other hand, not having any preparation and the worst happens, that individual is in a world of hurt. Every American need to be familiar with the worst case scenarios and have some preparations set aside just in case. I think the feds and banks ability to stall the crisis is a blessing in disguise for the ones who have not done anything to set food, water, ammo, guns and precious metals aside. The government has provided you time to catch up on getting those items. Early 2010 may be your last chance.

blam.....I’m on my 79th orbit of the Sun and I lived thru the 1930 - 1941 depression.. My recollection was that we were ‘poor’, but so was everyone else, so we didn’t ‘feel’ poor. Dad worked a couple days a week and we got by. I remember one day when he came home from work (he ran a large, four color printing press), and announced that he got a raise...to 60 cents/ hour. I thought, wow, a penny a minute. That was something. How times change. Jim
PS Govmt. (zero) is making the same mistakes now as H. Hoover, FDR, and govmt. made back then, prolonging the carnage.
