The U.S. Banking System is Effectively Insolvent

The whole charade of consumerism, multiple homes, $100000 cars on lease, Madison Avenue inspired wants and "needs", farm subsidies, tobacco subsidies, etc etc etc is ripe for elimination. The charade of George W. Bush is over - his legacy as the worst President ever is secure. Let us hope Dividends Anonymous is right and this economic meltdown will presage 70 years of real growth like the Great Depression. Our inheritance from our hard working forefathers has been squandered; we will have to rebuild for our children and grandchildren. Of course, in today's world there is only the "now" and the "me"; the future be hanged. Evidently bills of the future are coming due now.
