Lemme try this again. We're not fucked, because Americans are too lazy to not buy unnecessary bullshit. We don't even know how to not buy unnecessary bullshit. We'll even buy shit in efforts to save money. We've just slowed down a little bit for the time being, and look at the panic. It just shows we are a consumerist society, and as soon as people get a few bucks back, they are going to spend them immediately. That's what we do.

barfmachine, one of your buddies mentioned the election. Obama's Presidency so far has been a real disappointment imo. Although it's too early for him to do anything and I understand that he's not going to be in office til early next year but still. I mean, seriously he hasn't done shit yet, wtf.

And no one make a lazy nagger joke. Okay? This thread is a place for intellectual conversation full of Einstein reincarnations and we shouldn't pollute it with nonsense.

But to answer your question, again. I doubt we're as fucked as a lot of people assume we are.
If you're smart and know how to manage your money then I don't see why you should be worried. Unless of course you're in a position in your life where every dollar bill should be kept in a safe next to your food stamps. Then you really are fucked.

Up and downs, positive and negative, ying and yang. Until someone puts a dick in your ass you are not fucked.
