            but consumer spending was up in Jan. Even if unemployment goes to 10 percent that still means alot of people are still working making a living. The media isnt helping its like the daily horror show.
            exactly ... people arent going to stop living and the media just needs ratings so they pound the shit out of a dead horse.. Look at spring breakers/ look at the everyday living
            people are still driving ... still vacationing... still living / eating/driving!....i could give 2 fucks if TIFFANY&CO or GUCCI is making a fucking dime! In the end what matters is are people still buying FOOD and GAS! ... the answer is yes
            So just because WALL STREET drives the media to they their fucking mess doesnt mean people are gunna go hungry because some bitch cant buy jewelry or some high end purse... Americans have cut back on the bullshit! ....Take a look at when gas was 4$ a gallon ... what did the american people do ... they told the gas companies to stick their gas in their ass and that was all she wrote on high gas prices... DEMAND dropped and gas DROPPED... now these wallstreet fucks still trying to get their high dollar because of the 4$ gas and the over priced housing market are all upset because now their shits all fucked up because they over inflated the fuck outta everything by giving loans and making bad investments! ... I could honestly care less to see every fucking bank fall on its ass and wall street crash and burn... Ill still eat and ill still drive !

              Yeah, right... because all those people who lost trillions from their 401k had it all tied up in "TIFFANY&CO or GUCCI." You DO realize retail isn't the beginning and the end of Wall Street, right?

              People HAVE to buy food and gas. Neither is a sign that the economy is just fine. That would be extremely stupid to say. Not to mention you leave out one little aspect. A good portion of those people aren't using cash anymore. They have been to trained to pull out the plastic and what happens when the shit finally hits bottom and now we have this massive credit build up with no one able to pay it back?

              WE or THE PEOPLE, didn't do shit to lower gas prices, regardless of what your delusions are because the fact of the matter is, WE ARE STILL PAYING WAY MORE THAN WE WERE. Opec jacked the prices then lowered them less than halfway and now people think they are getting a deal or that they had some hand in lowering the price. HAHAHA, opec has you doing and thinking exactly what they want you too.

              You want everything to crash and burn? You my friend are an idiot because like it or not, thanks to our central banking system, if it fails WE ALL FAIL. PERIOD. END OF STORY.

                Orly? We seemed to come out of the great depression a stronger and smarter nation didnt we? And almost ALL the banks failed during that time. So shut the fuck up unless you know what you are talking about. You are being spoon fed that bullshit by the White.. excuse me Black house. Nationalize the banks or let them fail, we will survive. Just stop printing useless fucking money, thats all Obama is doing is printing money that has no value.

                  Show me were I said we WOULDN'T survive this... Or that we wouldn't bounce back. How about you shut your fucking mouth and quit putting words into mine.

                  As things go now, the FED, you know OUR CENTRAL BANK, is doing everything the wrong way. You even said it yourself, "Just stop printing useless fucking money, thats all Obama is doing is printing money that has no value."

                  But you are right, we couldn't possibly be in trouble, we just did those 1.6 trillion dollar bailouts for the fun of it right?

                      Oil price had nothing to do with consumption. From the horses mouth. The real reason oil price went down.

                      Skip forward until 3 minutes in



                      They tanked it to break the oil rich countries, also if they left it high while they tanked the major economies it would rapidly accelerate an inflationary depression. It was all engineered. Keep in mind Soros is behind Obama. He also happens to run one of the largest if not the largest money market funds. Shall I mention the nearly 600 billion money market run which triggered the panic on September 18th that more or less nailed McCain's campaign coffin shut and began the bailout madness.

                          I have not worried about it much, because i made plans and im pretty liquid, but people i work with, media, neighbours, friends, everyone basically is scared shitless, and all you can hear is crysis this, this is gona fall bla bla. Sometimes it's all it takes, and it indeed can colapse with all the hype media is giving the crysis to. So therefor, i am scared yes, but im scared of the "apocalypse", goverments falling and riots, violence and shit, not that i wont have money to buy food.

Our economists knew that, and that's why most of them recommended this stimulus package. In fact, many say we should have even used more money than the $782 billion that they used. So we have done the right thing by acting very quickly here. That said, nothing is going to turn this around anytime soon. But preventing a decade long recession was key.

                                      Calm down...the crisis will be over until the end of the year. But for the future, instead of making a loan, try to get more traffic.

                                        Not sure.

                                        It's been an open line of credit for me for about 4 years, where I took it up to 60k to hire employees, then brought it down to $0 just last year.

                                        I'm sure they have a clause where they can cancel the contract at any time.

                                        Hmmm.

                                          Do you read any history or just spout what you want? Govt spending is a proven method of getting economies out of recession. The problem with the US is that GW and gang have been spending like drunken sailors for years and now to rachet it up is pretty scary. Our debt ratio as a percent of GDP is near WWII levels and pretty much on par with third world countries.

                                            And his blog is just that....a blog, available to anyone.

                                            If someone wants to read and learn about what is really going on (not the idiot analysis you get on GFY) why deny them that resource just so you can pretend like you are in come exclusive economic club.

                                              I know my history very well actually. Give some examples of government spending pulling countries out of recessions. This should be fun...

                                              Yes, our national debt is a huge problem. One benefit we have is that our debt is all denominated in dollars. The risk is not that we default, but rather that we destroy our currency.

                                                United states - great depression
                                                Germany - Rise of Hitler
                                                Japan - did not do this as they run about 100% of GDP as the national debt and did not have the option.

                                                  Problem is Obama is helping create the hysteria ... using it to ram through massive socialism.

                                                    Hoover/Roosevelt's government spending and manipulation of the economy prolonged the Great Depression and it took a World War to get us out of it.

                                                    Weimar Republic Germany experienced hyperinflation because of large amounts of government spending which eventually led to Hitler getting power...

                                                    Japan bailed out everyone and their economy still has not recovered. It is referred to as the "lost decade".
