i take it back.

there's nothing like tossing and turning thru awful insomnia after having worked some 32 hours in the previous three days to amy goodman's monotone covering the largest collapse of one of america's oldest banks causing shockwaves (i'm waiting for the tsunamis to follow) on wall street. oil, gold, and food, yes, food prices are jumping to record highs.

and yeah, [info]jlassen, it's scary as fuck when you hear the words, "not since the 1930s" and "not since the great depression" in comparison to the american government's response to the bank's collapse... then, amy goes and finds a clip of that voice-that-gives-me-anyeurisms from friday as he is speaking to the economic club of new york say that he believes that america's economy is a "resilient economy."

off to werk for a bit, then i'm coming back and try to take a nap...

My favorite brain hurting Bush economic statement of late is, when asked if the war has impacted the economy, he says, "The problem is we built too many houses!"

you should definitely read the Freakonomics blog - it gives so much more interesting insight into these things.

http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.com/

and if math is a science....so is economics. i'm just saying.
