The lines could start forming any day at your local banks.

Homes are worth less than half the amount they were at the time of the loan

Really?! Where on earth (well...in the US) is this where housing values have fallen 50% in the last few years?

Then some dummies even used such money to invest in stocks that are in a freef

LOL! This absolutely pathetic.

Hey guy, those people made a lot of money!
Looked at the stock market lately?

For something in “free fall” it seems to be up about 5,000 points over 5 years ago, and that is a lot of cabbage in anyone’s patch. Moron.

The U.S. and most of the world have experienced financial boom times and are now facing gloom times with fear that it will end in doom times.

A PhD with the typical liberal "gloom and doom" message, with the hope that if they repeat the message often enough and loud enough, that the people will listen and make it happen.

Any PhD or any other economist whose predictions don't match reality or turn out to be wrong so often, should have their degrees or qualifications repealed.

actually the US economy is like the coyote walking on air before looking down...

The ‘financial vehicles’ of the banks that ‘spread the doe’ (liquidity) to fuel the economy are rotten to a breathtaking degree. It is - btw - a good idea to invest into solid big companies that can finance their future demands on their own - the banks will most probably not be able to do so in the near future. Also stocks from companies that are mostly self sustained are real values and don’t suffer much from devaluation of money.

every other prospect is whisteling in the dark.

greetings from a Ph.D. (in chemistry though)

His views on the current economy are typical liberal.

There may be liberals or democrats that have the same views on Islam as conservatives
