There Won't Be a Recovery

Where were YOU when the marxist Democrats were mandating that common sense and the regulations be overridden and that mortgages via the Community Re-Investment Act, specifically changes made circa 1994 (Fannie, Freddie, Frank, Dodd, and ilk) be given to people who didn't have the means to repay those loans???

What Happened to 'The Change We Need'?

Obama lied.
The economy died.

Change (to socialism/marxism) we can believe in.

It's here, it's happening now!!

The number of negative in proportion to positive responses to this author's comment only serves to re-enforce the accuracy of his opinions.

Which Black Swan Will Pop the Treasury Bubble?

Exactly correct as previously expressed, the bubble wil surely pop when foreign governments stop buying US debt and/or the US government can't pay the interest on the balooning debt it's created.

Better Days in Store for 2009

It sounds to me like the whole article is pretty much based on "hope," and not any substance other than "hope." Many of you have been led to believe that if you "hope" long and hard enough, some rationalizattion can be made that "hope" will be your economic salvation. " 'Hope' springs eternal."
Based on the most recent election, I find it amusing that approximately half the population sees their life's solutions based purely on "hope." Just check out the previous comment by Aitvaras.
" 'Hope' for the best!"
Any more platitudes of political oratory and dribble based on "hope?"
Here's "hope" for a better 2009!!!

A few comments.
1. The Bush-Administration definetely ruined this country and I strognly believe the GOP is done for good.
2. Obama faces a huge challenge, but the good thing is, there is not much he can do wrong, all the mistakes are already made.
3. Here is what he should do:
Get our troops home and end both wars .
Spend that money in the economy.
Nationalize the whole financial system.
Install universal healthcare.

Here's my response to her comments:

Mark Cuban, Is the Stock Market Still for Suckers?

Funny that Mark Cuban would besmirch the same vehicle that provided him the economic tools to act like a self-indulging idiot. It's difficult for the likes of Mark to accept the facts when the facts don't support their loony political positions.
