Now that liberal Wall Street millionaires are feeling the crunch, NOW we’re in a recession.
So why don’t you little people make yourselves useful and pay your taxes? “Too big to fail” needs a bailout. :)

QUESTION: So...from everything I have heard...both here on FR and on the net...color me confused. Why are treasuries trading with lower interest rates today?
The 10 yr note is down .19% as I write this. From what I had been hearing and reading...it was suppose to to rise after this downgrade. So why is it falling?
Makes me wonder if all this talk of sky-rocketing interest rates in the near future is a bunch of fear-mongering.

Pain for most and profit for some.
The stock market has been much more bullish than the rest of the world economy so it’s probably a move to reality.

I love those folks who helped get us in this mess, and suddenly they say, "This is Obama's economy." That's fine. Give it to me. My job is to solve problems, not stand on the sidelines and carp and gripe. http://tpmlivewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/2009/07/obama-its-my-economy-fine-give-it-to-me.php
