It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job.

Nonsense.

And we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had 15 homicides and 63 violent crimes

That specific report is perhaps true, but meaningless without an indication of what area and time are being talked about, and totally meaningless as an indication that the US in general has much worse crime than in the recent past. Violent crime rates are lower than they where under Clinton just to give one point of comparison.

Companies begging to be added to the "do not short" list should be ashamed of themselves

Agreed.
