rapper B, The '29 debacle has been cited as a parallel a bunch only to be countered by the bulls as things are different this time.

GoofBong just reminded us:

history never repeats... but it rhymes...

-Mark Twain

and I agree. What makes a possible rhyme a bit more likely in my mind is the fact that we are now 70 years later and most of the living memory is now dead. It is one thing to read about history in a book; quite another having your Grandfather tell you how it really was and that you are doing the same stoopit things even if the names are different. One thing we can be certain of is that human nature hasn't changed much in the last few thousand years.
