I agree w/you. Posted on the other thread about it, since it's "political"! Actually, it's more like existential!

This isn't either personal or political. I'm convinced the economic decisions of the last two administrations, at a minimum, have been controlled by WS, and WS doesn't have our best interests at heart, to say the least. The imbalances they let build up by 2007-8 have been built up again. They are even worse this time, with even more debt and derivative exposure, and I believe they have to blow up again like they did in 2008. I don't view that as doom and gloom, I view it as cause and effect. The problems aren't centered on real estate so much anymore. Now they are centered on government debt and WS derivative exposure.
