Well - now the world gets to see how it would have been if Hoover won instead of Roosevelt...
Make no mistake now - we are witnessing the repeat of the 1920's NOW.

This is just the BEGINNING.

Expect a cascading effect of HUNDREDS of more BANK FAILURES up and down the country as the ripple effect of dealing with REPUKE bankers and wall street types.

And STILL mcINSANE is PROUD of the fact that HE DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE ECONOMY!!!

And his latest response to this cascading list of bad news? - (Elect me) "and we will make sure we won't do what we've been doing AGAIN."

I kid you not - I might have a few of the words in the wrong order - but that was his campaign stump speech this morning...

Can any body say "Weimar Republic"?...

3. Excellent point!

Now...how do we drive it home? McLiar says he'll change all of that. He (meaning his party...the very same one, of course) says that he'll strengthen oversight. Do any of us really believe that? Honestly, after what they've done to ruin this country and trash its founding documents and premises, they deserve some serious time on the sidelines in the "penalty box."

5. Good points all - got to run now - off to see what's left of my job now...
being an Architect for the gaming industry here in Vegas things actually look good - for now...

after all - when times get bad, a lot of poor soles try to gamble on that "big break" on a roll of the dice - literally - and all forms of gambling actually increase...

Time for Barak to break out some of Roosevelt's speeches about now...starting with...

"we have nothing to fear but fear itself" and Roosevelts' speech on the banking situation...

...now where's our wheelbarrow - I've got to go by some gas and groceries now...
