US House rejects "the plan"... the glorious plan to save wall street from itself. For what little they have done in their 1.5 years of controlling the house, what a thrill it must be to actually do something. Talk about "tail wagging the dog" ...
It is quite amazing to see the ripple affects around the world of the decisions of a few political appointees. No, I don't think the US has a fair, just, or sane election system any longer. Yes, this is why I call them appointees.
US markets crash, Asia markets decline, what next.... It's probably quite traceable for those who know the map. Nonetheless, it should not be a surprise.
The idea that we could just throw money at this, and call it fixed, seems ridiculous.
Ridiculous... so I try to find a way to laugh...
So I have been enjoying the grand comedy. There is nothing else.

Wall Street Begs for Socialism
Oh, the irony.
Surely the ultimate example of Poetic Justice .... ... a literary device in which vice is ultimately punished, often in modern literature by an ironic twist of fate intimately related to the character's own conduct.
Wall Street, ground zero for capitalistism, begging for the largest socialist forgiveness in history.
What an easy time to be a writer.
