"In an interview with Bloomberg Television Friday, Greenspan said the nation could not afford 3.3 trillion dollars of tax cuts proposed by McCain without matching cuts in spending.

Greenspan, a long-time friend of McCain and a Republican, said about the Arizona senator''s plans to extend massive tax cuts imposed by President George W. Bush: "I''m not in favor of financing tax cuts with borrowed money."

I see your point, with your insult and name calling on peoples IQ. Don''t be so hard on yourself, though.

[People leave the Lehman Brothers headquarters on 7th Ave. in New York City carrying personal belongings as they clear their offices, Sept. 14, 2008 after hearing the news that Lehman Brothers may be forced to seek an orderly unwinding of its businesses.]

which is one of many bellwethers of the unwinding of our economy ... and not likely to be all that orderly.

but phil graham says it''s a ''mental recession'' ... so there''s really no need to worry ... just imagine it all being fine.

Well, this will devalue their currency at the expense of a gain in ours.

Does anyone on these sights have any intellect at all? I don''t hear a single person pointing out how rigged and manipulated these markets are for the rich, and the profit zones created by multiple governments for them, so to easily cash in at the cost of Joe Smith (now being called Main St.). The government switch the rules to the new game the corporations want to play, and the media scare the masses in the desired direction for the profit of the oligarchy.

So it turns out speculation WAS the cause for huge inflation in energy prices this last year, and the car companies took it on the chin. No law suits, no compensation, just big losses to allow their stock to be cheap. What do you think is coming the auto companies way these next 8 years?

Americans really are ignorant.

Gee, the concept of smaller government, meaning less oversight of Big Business, doesn''t seem like its working out so well! Go figure, Greed only knows how to limit its oversight, not how to control itself for the common good. I hope all of those in favor of smaller government are happy with the results. It doesn''t matter what amount of taxes you pay when you don''t have a job or property to worry about. I guess the ultimate answer is that all the fat cats who don''t want to pay their fair share in taxes will donate the extra money to all of us who are hurting economically for their benefit!
