golly I missed the standard scapegoat "poor people who bought houses they couldn't afford" in that list.

The reality is that real estate declines are nothing new and should be able to be withstood by a decent banking system. Derivatives are at fault and there is one political party who are the self proclaimed "party of deregulation" and it isn't the democrats.

That description of yours is uncalled for and offensive...

Please refrain from demeaning language re: Obama and his supporters...

Thank you..

For Obamaholics.

Cook? I usually like Gold newsletters as they have a good handle on Economics. I'm quite surprised this guy DIDNT EVEN MENTION GREENSAN AND THE FED!!!

Clearly a knownothing to be fair... the FED is at the top of the heap for blame!!!!!!!! TOP OF THE HEAP.

Why? Well, how do you know if systems are working? They get stressed and bounce back. THE ONLY FEEDBACK YOU GET in a system is observing it stressed.

Greenspan eliminated all the stress through a reckless easy money policy.

Cook is clearly clueless to be fair.
