Expect thwe dollar and the yen to surge during this period, as those who sell hedgefund and margin assets buy up dollars and yen to do so. Then the dollar should go south.

6. I have all the sympathy in the world for all of us who will take the brunt of the Great Depression 2

I just don't feel sorry for the jerks who brought this on and had the nerve to ask and get a bailout of epic proportions that only further hurts the middle class-the very people who pay the majority of the taxes in this country. :grr:
