There Is a Silver Lining

In a few weeks we will make a choice that will decide our future.
I follow an economist named Bob Proctor. He has called the top and bottom of every market crash since the 70s correctly.
Also, he perfectly predicted the current real estate market meltdown and the picture he paints about what will happen in the next couple years
is terrifying.He thinks it will be worse then the great depression.
The banks in the U.S. are going under one after the other. Countrywide ,Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch , Fanny and Freddy Mae ,AIG
The government took them over because they are essentially bankrupt. Even with the goverment nationalizing hundreds of billions of dollars in debt the stock market is crashing
the credit markets are frozen and all of us may suffer beyond anything in the last 80 years.
McCain just like Bush " doesn't understand the economy".
That not just my opinion its his own words. Not only does he not understand how to fix it but he does not understand exactly what is broken.
It is no surprise that he doesn't. The people that make up these securities use complex mathematical models very few people understand.
Bush and McCain both can take the credit for this mess since they helped deregulate the laws that were protecting us.
Bush's economic advisor Phil Graham wrote the deregulation bill that allowed banks to take huge risks with all of our future.
Now, Phil Graham is the head of McCain's economic policy.He is also McCain's choice for the next secretary of the treasury.
No one in this country can afford for that to happen. The last time Bush met with his economic advisors was in March. He didnt realize that anything was wrong. Phil Graham had the guts to say that we are in a mental recession after he helped create the worst economy meltdown in our lifetime.

It will take the best and brightest minds in the world to get us out of this nightmare. As bad as Bush has done, McCain would be
even more destructive because things are in much worse shape. The next president will not inherit a surplus like Bush did but a crashing economy and a 11,600,000,000,000 (trillion) dollars deficit. Most of it Bush created and it will take decades to pay it back.
If you do what you have always done then you will get what you have always got.
When it comes to policy Bush and McCain are the same 90 percent of the time.
So why are the polls even close then ?
Mccains team just said they no longer want to talk about the economy.Instead they would like to spend time talking about obama
which means running the biggest smear campaign in history.
They think they can just tell you lies and you wont be smart enough to see through it
Let's teach him we are smarter than that .

America's Challenge...

On a purely academic level, I agree with Fareed Zakaria's assessment of the challenges facing America and the roadmap to their resolution.

However, as a society, America must first overcome its inherent social ills, which doom it to perpetual state of Rise and Decay, before she can truly rise to the greatness envisioned by its Founding Fathers.

For instance, the average American reads at an 8th grade reading level.

Therefore, the average American's ability to understand her challenges and remedies decrease as the complexity of those challenges and remedies increase.

As a result, it is much easier to rally American's around simple issues like War (Them vs. US), Religion (Christians vs. Pagans), Guns (Crime and Punishment) and Taxes (Increasing vs. Decreasing).

It has proven not to be politically expedient to attempt to rally them around the complexity of each of these issues.

To his credit, Karl Rove has proven to be somewhat cerebral in understanding this simple fact to the benefit of the Republican Party over the last 2 Presidential elections.

The current American crises have not made the complexity of the issues facing Americans easier for them to understand, it has simply made the impacts of their failed resoultion "personal."

Regrettably, given the political climate of espousing and condoning xenophobic rhetoric in an erratic attempt to appeal to the lowest form of American citizenry, Fareed Zakaria's illustrative dissertation may fall on deaf ears.
