Yes - you have been. Guess I was just in the mood to rant :) Not sure if it was on this thread but i read that Bears Stearns was "setup" or "forced" to go under by the other banks and the FED - as payback for being the only bank for not helping with bailing out of LTCM. Just wonder if anyone had thoughts on that..

Thanks

Been harping on the declining US standard of living for years, here is some more sobering news>

POLL: France best place to live in world; USA drops to #7...


Britain has dropped to 25th place on a list of the best places in the world to live - behind countries such as the Czech Republic, Lithuania and Uruguay.

While France tops the poll for the fifth year running, the UK's climate, crime rate, cost of living, congested roads and overcrowded cities have pushed it even further down from last year's ranking at 20.
