I don't think anybody knows exactly what is going to happen economy or market wise. With so many job losses I don't know what is happening to those families with kids and large mortgages. My wife is an employment counselor working under the Labor department and she tells me that the grants are available (at least locally)for free education grants but the problems are that how does a man or woman exit the work force for two years to get educated and if they can surmount that problem how can they live on a salary that is 50-60% less than they were originally making? As far as I am concerned I have far less care for what happens to these banks and institutions who are rich at the middle income families expense. There are no news stories about the plight of thousands of families that are right now being affected by the decisions that the government has made over the last four years. I can promise that if the current administration is reelected for another four years we are in for a gloom and doom scenario that most cannot even begin to contemplate. Even if a new administration is elected, the trillions in debt that has been created has to somehow be taken out of the system. Guess who the politicians like to have pay for it? James
