This scares the bejesus out of me.

If laws are properly enforced we are S-C-R-E-W-E-D! And I mean everybody, financially irresponsible & responsible alike.

Get your End of Days plans dusted off. Load up on those survivalist packages. Sight in the guns & load up on ammo. Then batten down the hatches.

I'd normally say the above is all hyperbole, but given the people in charge of the country right now??? Will they take it to the Man & use this to bring down those Eeeeevil, greedy Banks even if it brings on the Greatest Depression ever? Or will they find a way to straighten this out pronto?

God this scares me.

My broker just told me that the government buying mortgage-backed securities is the reason interest rates are so low. I thought they should be high, given the deficit spending.

He said they will go up. Didn't say how soon, but I bet it's next year.
