anyone paying attention to the economy going down the fucking shitter?

@Darkstar

it certainly seems that way. of course, they’re only making it much worse in the long run. It’s like a heroin addiction… Ohhhh yeeeahhhhhh Fed… yeah gimme another hit of that sweet black tar interest rate cuts… C’mon… just one more cut.

Of course, you will eventually hit rock bottom, and quitting that shit cold turkey is going to be a real bitch.

I agree with you, but our economy is so influential to the world and to many growing economies (i.e. China) they will continue to lend us money to stimulate our bubbled/borrowed economy. Hopefully, whoever is elected next as president will be much more fiscally conservative and by pulling troops out of Iraq, it will end up saving us not only lives, but money also.
