Sorry for the lack of updates everyone, but thank you for registering and participating when able thus far. Unfortunately, I come with a heavy satire (if not heart), and as such feel obliged to write a bit now.
I shall start right away…
First Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac, now Lehman Brothers.
As one blogist/journalist wrote, indeed, Wall Street is becoming Fall Street.
This credit problem is growing steadily worse as more big companies fold. Yet mankind carries on as if nothing is happening… scurrying like many rats on a sinking ship to the refuge of potential investments.
This makes me wonder. Loyalty is a humble notion, but a rare entity. Thus, perhaps, we should all put money into the businesses we prefer? Should we pay taxes at all if capitalism’s dream is to make as much money as possible off little investments? Capitalism never ceases to amuse me.
Bureaucracy, credit, paperwork; the epitome of “civilized” society. Shifts of money dictate shifts of power. It’s getting hard to follow who has all of what cards in the financial world. And in the wake of it all [the while] feverishly fanatical denizens of the dollar chase what[ever] little hopes that they can find in their little preferred (if only just introduced to the masses) politicians.
It truly amuses me… sometimes to sit back and revel in watching the pathetic attempts of little men and their little schemes to make something more of themselves, to get closer to the big cheese in this rat race.
Where does America stand? On the brink of destruction, or on the other hand, retribution. We will most likely fail to stop these things coming to a head, as we have dissociated ourselves so thoroughly from each other. That is why we will most likely not experience Renaissance until it is too late to save the floundering capitalist state.
Clutch your dollars tightly, little men with little minds, for the new dawn is coming. As the late George Carlin was want to say, “That’s the whole thing to the American Dream; you’ve gotta be asleep to believe it”.

amen. Capatilism is supposed to reward effort with money, but when the money craps out, so does the effort, and since money is a corrupting influence that can crap out the continuance of the finest efforts whether it’s there or not, either way our economy is a chaos engine waiting for a trainwreck.
In short, I agree. Capitalism is proving pretty f’d up right now.

We can still salvage decent portions of it truly even now there are people jumping at such opportunities. More power to them. If I had enough money I know exactly what I’d be doing right now. But alas I don’t. And I don’t want to sell out to what that would mean anyway.
But gradually, the majority perception I have received has caused me to wonder why even bother… no one seems to care or even notice where this is all inevitably going. Yet day in and out we as a collective perpetually extenuate and follow through with courses of action that do not deviate in any way.
Oh well, taking the most convenient trade off for short term gain has brought us here… possibly we have truly been deluded out of necessity. But talking about it solves nothing truly. There is much work to be done, and cynicism only makes things worse ftmp.

Solution? Divide by zero.
