So many things economically that are happening now---HAVE NEVER HAPPENDED BEFORE--this economy/possible recession cannot be compared to any previous!

Wilkerson was not a lone voice. Actually there have been several that have been warning of the same thing before him. He's just the most popular.

I think some folk in Dallas would take issue. in 1985 we had a housing meltdown like nobodys business.

I remember double diget inflation in the 70''s AND double digit interest rates.

I have studied the great depression and I think anyone who lived thru that would consider it far worse.

somewhere around 1890 JP Morgan saved America from a complete banking collapse.

I dont agree that we are at a place we have never been before. there are surely some very bad things going on in our economy but there are also some other things that indicate some areas of stability.

its a mixed bag to say the least but the fact that it is mixed means there is some good....


and even if things do fall and fall hard, we have seen that happen too.

pick any 5 year period in American History and i bet we can find one.


question. if California falls into the ocean, will we look for the most recent "prophet" who called for it and say he was right?


NOT ME.

What do you think ?
As one of Scot-Irish and Bohemian descent (with a wee bit of Norman blood) I'd personally like for the Limeys to get wot's comin' to 'em. Been struttin' around in their khakis and pith helmets long enough, I tell you wot Bob.

I say 'urricanes for Cornwall and send some Moorish slavers back as well. 'ow 'bout an earthquake in Trafalgar - be the best way to clean up that cesspool of East Ender "boys" and their MP's.
