You guys aren't going to believe me but...

Quote from clacy:

This isn't exactly new news here. The layoffs are coming and will be coming in a big way in 2009. Unemployment will double in my opinion.

Tax revenues will be decimated and goverment spending will be increased, which could end spell the end of the greenback. Luckily we still have the nukes, stealth bombers and F-22's as war will likely be in the cards in the next dozen years, as this crisis causes havoc across the world.

i have to admit i've wondered what role 9000 nukes will have when push really comes to shove

it would be the first time in history someone with that much firepower voluntarily kneeled before a new master
 
My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.
 
Name One:

Texas: One of the strongest.

Our company, record year last year and we are energy. Looking to double our profits this year as "Private Equity" ...all that cash on the sidelines, is put to work.

Medical: San Antonio, Houston are on a huge growth rate with Medical....all aspecs.

Military: NSA, and the 4 Branches are building like crazy in the South Texas Region.

Housing: Stable. I picked up a Bi level loft, 3400 square feet, corner of on of the best buildings downtown San Antonio. It is up 5% as of the last quarter, total worth has increased near 10% since I purchased it, but is starting to even off.


Plenty of places doing well.

You are delusional.

These areas may do better than the rest of the nation, but booming? You are straight out lying. For example, Houston is having record degrees of homeless. A few years ago, they were near non-existent.

when the governement can no longer borrow, which i feel is the next big crisis (the projected deficits - will NOT be met with eager lenders), debt service rates will explode, and anything of any value under the red white and blue will be sucked dry to pay the government's insatiable appetite
 
So everyone is going to stop buying food, fuel, shelter etc, etc....?

Riiiiiiigghhttt..............

What a bunch of drama queens. :D
 
Based on the value of your prior contributions to ET, your friend's relative that works at the Fed must be the nighttime janitor that scrubs out Bernanke's toilet bowl. :D
 
Quote from bond_trad3r:

I have a friend whom has a family member working at the Federal Reserve in Washington. Since you guys aren't going to believe me since a lot of what I post is BS, I'll spare the details and just say that the economy may be in far worse shape than anyone is currently expecting.

Unbelievable, simply unbelievable!

And here I was thinking that the economy may be in far better shape than anyone is currently expecting.

Boy, did I get that one wrong.
