While we are on the topic of fear of the future and outrage towards our current croney system, I will offer this: my friend from Haiti once told me this: whenever there is a riot, the people who really get screwed are the upper middle class professionals and business owners- the megarich are insulated and the poor got nothing to lose...I fear the same thing in our country- the walk aways, proposed cram downs and mass bankruptcy filings are akin to a financial riot: those of us who are financially responsible to have assets and are "rich" enough to pay taxes are going to get screwed from all sides...have a nice day!

I thought about upping my savings but when the Fed is printing money like Germany in the 1920's, I just don't see how hoarding cash is wise. I've actually decided to go out and buy assets_ hard goods that do not spoil. See? Doing MY part to stimulate the economy. Canned food? Stockpiling! No matter what the dollar is worth, you gotta eat right? Remember that money is just a medium of exchange. It is what is being bought and sold that has true worth. Savings?!?!?

Maybe another new-money third-world giant will buy all of our debt, say Guatemala, and we can kick the can down the road another year, but right now it's not looking so good...sorry Tay, maybe some ranch dressing will help those green chutes go down....
