Am going to be writing more on this this week, as I can.

I don't think though that Joe 6 Pack will get riled up about it...if anything, the average American that is up to his eyeballs in debt wants the system to correct (loaded word, I know) and no one wants to go through the pain of a real correction. I don't talk about it much anymore with friends and family..they think I am a shrill tin hatter...maybe I am. Looks as if this has been going on a lot longer then I have been around...we just see the monster behind the curtain now.Mystic Indigohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13819788891906071402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7623438328827408121.post-653034403677832112009-07-26T23:52:51.671-05:002009-07-26T23:52:51.671-05:00No doubt this piece is over-the-top and very edgy ...No doubt this piece is over-the-top and very edgy with an attitude, Greg. But you can not read it fully and not be shaken by it IMO.
