The root of the problem is simple: You can’t keep a household, a business, a city, a county, a state, or a nation running indefinitely when an ever-increasing level of debt is part of the equation. Either we’re going to deal with that reality, or that reality is going to deal with us.

I heard today that there’s a run on assault rifles because of the fear that Bobo will initiate a ban on them. Dear God, it wouldn’t surprise me if there’s a run on the grocery stores too right before he takes office! I would bet that far-right fringe groups are busy processing new members (and maybe the Panthers too!) And when the O-bots don’t get what they were promised, will they storm the White House? I have my 401K in treasury bills, so unless Bobo manages to bring this emerging banana republic down around our ears, I guess my savings is safe (?)

The Bush economy hath wrought this, the billionaire bailout gang is cashing in their checks before they have to face a real version of the DoJ and SEC.

This meltdown was years in the making. Rather than my trying to recapture all of it in brief right here, are you able to access my posts over the course of the last month? If so, I think I have tried to be fairly comprehensive as to what is going on in the economy and the markets.

I hope that you can access them. The posts go into housing, leverage, hedge funds, the rescue package….and in a word it all boils down to excessive greed on all of the contributing parties, including the banks.

As individuals and institutions in totality we were living beyond our means funded by excessive debt. This situation was also global in nature.

Again, for your own benefit please try to access my pieces.

All the best.
