They should just let the bubble burst. Government action is only adding fuel to the fire.
Exactly right. We need to be realists. The entire world is leveraged. This can’t end well..... at least any time soon.
Funny, after all this, I haven’t heard ANY talk about outlawing derivatives or credit default swaps. Give it 2 or 3 years—they’ll be back with a vengence. This time the geeks will SWEAR that they’ve gotten the bugs out of their math models (heh, heh).
The time is ripe and the socialist know it.
Wait until the OBAMA gets elected!!
What will the DOW be, 500 or 1000?
OBAMA MAY BE A REAL THREAT TO THE FREE MARKETS!
That may be in the article..but your headline is not correct. The headline is not nearly as glaring as the one you made up out of wholecloth.
That’s all I am pointing out.
OK.
I see this as the biggest story of the weekend. Coming from the IMF.
Why in the world do they say these things out loud? I don’t understand. If you are trying to prevent a meltdown then you tone down your rhetoric.
Are they trying to force the people to get their governments to do more? Are they warning people?
What is the psychology behind all of this?
That really worked out well for the Jews and Germans didn't it.
Some guy posted he thinks the whole thing was planned!!!!
I believe so - considering how rapidly this crisis has unfolded and that none of the measures taken so far have been able to stem the bleeding.
Do you think that is why there is no confidence in the system????? LOL
Fox News discussing now. Brett Baer just reported that Pelosi and the democrats have met with Obama and are working on another stimulus package to be passed after he takes office. It includes food stamps, among other goodies.
I agree, they are creating alot of fear.
“What is the psychology behind all of this?”
PANIC...and an attempt by socialists/communists around the globe to use this crisis to their own ideological aims. They are also trying to take down America’s dominance in the world.
BFL
B-B-B-B-B-Bennie......Bennie...Bennie and the Feds........LOL!
There was a post on FR Saturday a.m. about Huckabee saying on Fox that economic terrorism was being looked at as the cause of the meltdown.
I left to run errands and a couple hours later the thread was gone. Did I miss it or was the thread pulled, and if so, why?
Anyone know?
Precisely. Paulson looks absolutely unhinged by this.
