People don't seem to understand what just happened to us. We went through the worst recession since the Great Depression. Three years ago exactly half of the twenty houses on my street were empty. This isn't something that will be fixed in four years, or even eight years. What we just went through was fucking massive.
It's going to be a slow climb to get back to "normal". And along the way, we might need to redefine what the "new normal" is.

But clearly if McCain and Palin was in office, we would be much better off, right?
