I found this article on MSNBC of all news organzations right? Its from there help desk and I am try to find other numbers to back up what MSNBC says.

www.msnbc.msn.com...

This is kind of shocking to me considering the goverment says the rate is around 9% and Obama said we wouldnt get over 8% if we passed the stimulus.

www.time.com...

So whats all say about Obamas hold over the media?( I know this one is a stretch)

www.foxnews.com...

Please let me know your thoughts.

Dude are you serious, I mean come on, America isnt the only ones who have caused heartache across the globe, we have only been a nation for 200 years. Dont forget about Europe and its slave trade, or Europes attacks on Navtive Americans, or Russia, China, Pol Pot, North Korea, Iran.

Damn America haas done more Right then she has done wrong, and we Americans contiunally strive to make up for our 90 years of slavery. We dont have a perfect past but its sure better the the nations I mentioned.

The American people are largely blameless - they are just victims of their propaganda networks.

They seem to believe that the stimulus was in some way supposed to help the citizens - and the economy is recovering - and unemployment is actually 9% - what a laugh.

It was of course just a buffer for the favored banks to prevent them failing while the Fed held the economy in a deflationary depression to bankrupt and steal the average mans real estate.

But - yes - we can only hope the entire nation is destroyed. It might wake some people up to whats outside of their own backyard.

Theres also a chance it will get rebuilt a lot better than it is now.

You might want to go read this article by Thomas Palley...A second Great Depression is still possible.... He's very good about explaining Economists in layman's terms I think all of us are now using his car metaphor when trying to explain why things are only going to get worse from here....

You know I looked at that, And I see a second collaspe coming but from which sector will it fall? The Goverment, banks, commercial real estate, we are in trouble here in America.

Unemployment is the trigger in his scenario... he talks about
The destruction of household wealth means many households have near-zero or even negative net worth. That increases pressure to save and blocks access to borrowing that might jump-start a recovery. Moreover, both the household and business sector face extensive bankruptcies that amplify the downward multiplier shock and also limit future economic activity by destroying credit histories and access to credit.


Meaning that unless we can get a handle on unemployment everything will fall in like a house of cards set on a shaky table

Also there is people who want a job, but don't need one to support themselves.

Like me. I'd love to work, even if only 10 hours a week, but my parents got me covered.
