The Deutsche Bundesbank. Don't they have billions in bad loans to the Greek government?

You are now starting to understand the extent of the problem.

If I understand right because of all the cheap money ALOT of major corporations are up to their eyeballs in dept.

Basically all the stock buy backs you are hearing about are due to cheap money. Deutschebank is drowning in debt.

They did that to boost up the price or value of their stock?

I will see their Barry Goldwater and raise them a Dewey, GHW Bush, Ford, Dole, McCain, and Romney.

You can't beat somebody with nobody. McCain, Romney and the others got the nomination because the ideal conservative candidate that people contrasted them with wasn't running and didn't exist.

The good news this time I guess is that there isn't a strong establishment candidate who can defeat the outsiders. Probably such a candidate doesn't exist. It certainly isn't Jeb.

So there's a good chance this time that the nominee won't be somebody from the party establishment (though by the end of the campaign the nominee may be attacked in just those terms). It's the same logic and set of circumstances, though, that made those less conservative candidates the nominee in previous years.

Please, Goldwater lost because he was running against JFK’s ghost and one of the dirtiest bastards in American political history.

Goldwater lost by a landslide because of JFK, but he would have lost under other circumstances. He alienated or scared enough people to keep him under 50%.

The stock market is a house of cards and one little thing goes wrong and "poof" it all comes tumbling down!

Probably explains why the Chinese central bank cutting interest rates. To try to keep things "propped" up.
