> The confluence of the subprime market with the horrible inflation we’re suffering and the tremendous national debt we have is making a “Perfect Storm” of economic shittyness.

1. The cause of all the recent inflation can be traced down to one source: OIL PRICES
2. The whole “collapse of the subprime market thing” was Congress’s fault from the beginning.
3. The tremendous national debt is Bush’s doing for the most part, spending our money like a drunken sailor.

However, you forgot the main reason for the recent crashing:

Investors are so fucking afraid of a Democratic takeover of Congress & The Presidency because of the devistation that would be done to our economy, that they are getting out of the market in droves causing a gigantic sell-down.

This whole mess can be summed up in one statement:

We currently have NO leadership whatsoever in this country and none on the horizon…:crying:
