    The Depression Drives Forward

    Well thank god we have this recovery.. The US has just been downgraded to - "Don't expect us to pay you back"

    Let's see what Tim Geithner had to say about if the US would be downgraded.



    Well here we are a week later and they have been downgraded. You see if you just listen to these people and believe the exact opposite of what they say, you will be right 80% of the time.

    IMO the GDP of the US has been cooked over the last year or so. I believe there has been negative growth and that we are in the beginning of the second phase of the depression.

    Oh ya and the couple thousand point drop in the last couple weeks is a good indicator too..

    Call it what you want, and I don't necessarily disagree with you on this... What I do want to point out is that I expect(ed) this recovery to take about 8 years.

    It was fun while it lasted...

      lol @ recovery

      There will be no recovery until the sovereign debt situation is under control, and the FED and Wall Street are held accountable for their part along with the spendthrift politicians (your genius boy wonder being the biggest offender).

        The world better wake up soon. Or we all will be broke. The Mega Banks and Mega Energy have been cutting us a thousand times. We are slowly bleeding out.

        We as a global community must stand together or we will hang separate.

            ^He really expects this President to start that process? One who received more campaign funding (from both national and international interests) than any of his predecessors?

              I posted that as more of an identification of the problem than what he said as a solution. It's a start for sure. They all suck, they're all bought, both sides of the isle, from the bottom to the top. Way to jump up and bash one side tho Vinnie. Solid effort. #biggesteyerollever

                Just pointing out the obvious, and that expecting it from this President is a fool's errand. You won't have to deal with my politically incorrect posts anymore, goodbye forever.

                          p.s. this is not just a US problem...its global look at the UK and Murdoch/Ecclestone...the Chinook thing of the 90's...communication tenders in Europe for bandwidth...insider trading on wall street and in the city... we all live in rampant corruption...its a joke...and the public well...the masses are uneducated idiots who steal Nike trainers, burn local privately owned businesses as a sign of "rebellion" and post half naked pics of themselves on facebook... my faith in humanity immediately restored.

                            I have zero faith in humanity. Don't hold your breath for "the masses." A person is smart, "people" are stupid.
