| The world economy is deteriorating more quickly than leading economists predicted only weeks ago, with Britain yesterday becoming the latest nation to surprise analysts with the depth of its economic pain. |

| #9 This is very bad for people who make money without producing anything (financial job market). I have had a bug up my arse about this wretched global economy for years, I'd love to see it put back into perspective at this time and limited for everyone's good. |

| #8 "The Dems don't want a solution." Give Besoeker a cigar. He's gotten it exactly. The Dems look back to the Depression as their best days, prolonged by keeping the economy down and keeping as many people as possible dependent on the government (always their REAL goal). |

| #7 The financial crisis will not begin to subside until he cranks up his reelection campaign in ernest. I understand Ernest is none too pleased about it. |

| #4 The Dems don't want a solution. They want a prolonged crisis so they can shovel billions to the NYC Amish bankers, brokedick states like Mexifornia, welfare and give-away programs, and ACORN. No crisis... no hand in the cookie jar. O.B. is already talking about 2012. His agenda is very clear. The financial crisis will not begin to subside until he cranks up his reelection campaign in ernest. |

| #3 If the f'n gimmints would CUT TAXES (and cut gummint "jobs" and "programs") and GET OUT OF THE WAY and quit trying to "fix" things (which only makes it worse x 10), we'd recover all on our own. Which of course is what they don't want.... |

| #1 I was at the mall today. I was freaking packed ... like Christmas or something. Took us 30 minutes for us to find a place to park. The inside was jammed. Retail sales are down because of the heavy markdowns in prices, not because of the volume of individual sales. People were buying. |
