what do you mean: it bought him 36 months of insider selling like there was no tomorrow (that expression sounds rather ominous these days)

<Why even have embarked, on the foolish project in the first place to flush it down the toilet now?>

The "project" didn't work.

#1: The used false models and assumptions, and then just pulled it out of their asses in an ad hoc way.

#2: The US is totally corrupt now, dominated by largely by financial interests and trading desks: beats work. The government and the Fed apparatchiks are "owned" lock, stock, and barrel by this mob. Just look at the Fed replacements over the last several years, progressively worse, hand picked mob sycophants and yes men.

There has to be more to the story - like bankruptcies rising at record pace, or foreclosures on the rise.

Anoher one could be that we've fukked up in Iraq so bad that even Japan doesnt want to buy US bonds anymore.

There has to be major problems in order to raise rates now, the whole Bush campaign has been based on lowering taxes and running the deficits to infinity and beyond.
