Reality Check: There is No Silver Bullet

Wake up America.

There is no silver bullet to what ails you. For all of the hype behind the stimulus bill, the banking bill, the multiple bail outs -none of them are going to fix this problem.

When an economy is as fucked as yours is, don't expect any one piece of legislation to bring salvation. It's not a werewolf you can shoot at and change back.

Your entire economic system is a fraud. You've been ripped off by those you trusted, and the whole 'trickle down economics' thing is finally kicking in: you're getting pissed on.

Like a badly broken bone, your economy needs to reset. And if you ever had a broken bone reset before, you know it hurts almost as much as the actual break.

What does this mean for you? Probably some are all of the following:

1) Total nationalization of the banking system for a 'short' period of time.
2) The collapse of at least one major auto company.
3) The fall of home values by 30% or more
4) A Dow Jones of around 5000 when it hits 'bottom'. Maybe less even.
5) A national unemployment rate of around 11-13%, with at least one state having one of around 20%.
6) An inflation rate of around 5% or more
7) Kissing your 401ks good-bye

Don't blame Obama for any of this. There is nothing he can do to fix it. Like watching a building collapse, there is nothing you can do but wait for it to hit the ground and then clean up the mess.

Just remember who you should be angry at: every politician that told you that Al-Qaeda was the biggest threat to America. They spent years and a trillion dollars on a 'war on terror' when they should have been waging a 'war on fraud' on Wall Street. Remember them telling you how Osama Bin Ladin was going to destroy capitalism? From a cave no less?

Seems that the jerks on Wall Street did a good job of that themselves.
