Who am I to declare a panic? Don't worry about that yet; just stock up on a little cash and canned goods. When everything the feds do JUST MAKES THINGS WORSE -- we are in a panic. Not just grandpa's Depression, but a good old-fashioned running-scared panic when the shelves go bare (you can see it sporadically in some Targets now) because the stores or their venders run short on ready cash. A panic is a time when people hoard things and wait to be rewarded with lower prices, which of course do come. read full story / add a comment

People have made bad and improper investments with credit and equity.

My family and friends (who I would say are "average" and "normal" Americans) have used home equity to buy other homes, invest in the stock market, to buy "stuff", and to pay expenses. This sometimes illegal and improper use of residential property equity is the problem! This equity does not exist yet, and no one knows when - or if it will. --- No one knows how much this equity may be - and it is all ready "at work", multiple times over. I have seen many people live off of credit, and use their money to invest. This "hyper-capitalism" of equity on equity - on credit and debt appreciation, is a flawed and failing economic model; and it is failing - just as it should.

"All Texans talk like sh*theads!" SERPENT-spawned Economic Crisis - "O God, do not keep silent; be not quiet, O God, be not still. See how your enemies are astir... With cunning they conspire against your people; they plot against those you cherish..." (Ps. 83:1-3) It's all a sad attempt to protect the stupidity of the sh*thead in the White House!

The mortgage debt problem is simple really, it has been a total mis-appropriation of equity. The equity lost on flat screen TV's, boats, new cars, vacations, and other living expenses; is equity lost forever. This loss of equity spent on consumer goods and expenses is a pyramid scheme of hyper-capitalism that is flawed and failing. Equity not spent on the property the equity comes from, is equity lost forever, a mis-appropriation of funds, and inappropriate; it is a failing economic model. read full story / add a comment

If anything both war and securities fraudster Christopher Cox who George W as SEC Chair, as well as the the war zero and Charles Keatings' 1980's banking fraud stooge John McCain should be asked when and where they first heard the made up term 'naked short selling'(not to be confused with the academically accepted term short selling that has been in the stock or securities jargon for decades including before the great depression) - and whether the name James Dale Davidson 'rings a bell'.

Scorpionic cancer is one of the evils that IMCs support by removing this article, but they are too stupid to know it! Understand that when they delete or hide this article, they enable Bush Nazis to track anyone trying to access it here or elsewhere. 9/30 British Tarantula Society, a British sh*thead organization is featured! RIP Linda.

The Bush-Pelosi proposed law bailing out Wall Street capitalist greed and hyper-profit,will hit the American poor and middle class even harder, and prolong the crisis. Time to stop the bill! Time to change Wall Street-coddling politicians! Time to go into the streets and make the people's voice heard!

Barack Obama dropped a bomb on his young enthusiasts at Columbia University on September 11. The heavily Democratic crowd booed McCain when he called for the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) to be brought back to campus (it was driven out in 1969 by protests against the Vietnam war). Liberal students expected a different answer from Columbia alum Obama, but the forum was a symphony of agreement as both candidates campaigned for expanding the military and pledged their enthusiastic support to U.S. imperialism. That should have been the tip-off for anyone who hadn't figured it out by then: Obama is no "peace candidate" but like McCain he is a certified imperialist war candidate. read full story / add a comment
