Wait 'em out.

 

Time is on our side.

 

Al is trapped.

 

But it may take weeks/months of slow-motion action for the supertanker economy to rip its hull open on the iceberg and turn bow-up in the icy water.

MH, you're like a herb tea for my soul...

As LLD says, they (the matrix) are on a mission; and I wouldn't be surprised if good news arrives tomorrow on PPI, as prices were taken about the time there was the break in wholesale energy costs. Also, expect rumors on "better-than-expected" IBM earnings (due out Thursday after close) to keep churn week alive and well. :angry:

The "coming generational storm" should get young people's attention when they realize the consequences of not voting. Politics will take care of them, that's for sure.

 

BTW, in my province, 60% of the people do not pay taxes. What do you think they ask of governments ? Lower taxes or more services.

 

"Politicians do respond to pressure from voters. Imagine, if you can, the first ministers changing the agenda at this September's meeting from health care to the challenges of higher education. It won't happen, as we all know."

...

interesting, the not-very-financially-oriented Village Voice has been running a series of articles under the banner of "Generation Debt", and health care costs are the topic of the current one:

One Sick Fall

With health insurance out of reach, a generation braces itself for the worst

If they're not outright poor as a class, young adults in this country are at least very, very broke. The average collegian graduates with more than $20,000 in debt, headed for a job market where real hourly wages have kept pace with neither inflation nor the cost of living. Young adults are broke in part because of their unprecedented schooling?in the latest census figures, 28 percent of those between 25 and 29 reported holding a bachelor's degree?which promised to pluck them away from the constellation of problems plaguing America's underclass, whether it was trouble with housing or inadequate medical care.
