‘Hope and Change’

Yep. No better time than now to add a few trillion dollars to our debt.

I have to disagree with the Doomers.

There is more credit unwinding to go, but there also is a lot being paid back, and fast.

Commercial Real Estate market “shoe” to drop, in next year or so (if that long), just like housing mortgage market. The FUNDAMENTALS of our economy are screwed up, and the “O” admin is putting people into car payments at a time when people should NOT be in debt. period.

Also, look at the foreclosures and bankruptcies in recent months, in addition to job number losses...we are not in position we need to be in to have a long term recovery, it is just another house of cards....that will eventually plummet ???within a year or two we will hit rock botton, imho.

My opinion is zero is holding lots of stimulus money back, to be spent to hit economy, just in time for 2010 elections. To make it look like dems have “saved the day”. There will be no more money for stimulus, for jobs, for paying bills. For our own national security protection. NOW my opinion is barring any violence or terrorist attacks, etc that would accelerate that, as history shows.

Pray, prepare, self-control,and information will keep us as personally safe as possible, which in this environment isn’t saying very much, except for prayer.

I would love to see geographic and demographic profiles of the citizen sample they used.

CNN did this all by itself....? Sure, I trust Ted Turner implicitly. [/sarc]

Click on "cdn.turner.com" at the top of the link and you go to the full Adobe report.

First line: "This was a sample of 1136 Americans with an oversampeling of African-Americans". [approx wording]

The body of the report gives no other demographics. Relying on this poll as a sample of America would be like relying on Joe Biden to make sense.

Likely, What would you call a shedding of millions of jobs at the rate of 400-500k a month. The official unemployment rate is 9.7% heading for 10%, the real unemployment rate is 16% or greater. When you factor in the underemployed more than 1 in 5, 20% or more, of working Americans are unemployed / underemployed. The government tax revenues are off by 18% the business tax revenues are down by 57%.

These are all DEPRESSION ERA NUMBERS. Meanwhile the idiot in chief tries to cram the largest tax increase , Crap n Tax, Universal Health care, and possibly another ‘Recovery” plan.

If this isn't a depression because of severity, the length will make it so in a few more months

......and possibly another ‘Recovery” plan.

Jim Puplava of FinancialSense.com says he has a friend working in Washington, D.C. right now with Congressional dhimmis coming up with a 2nd porkulus bill to have ready in time for Obummer to announce in his first state of the union address. You knew it was coming. They won't stop until the dollar completely collapses.
