The last time I checked, Bear Stearns wasn't "everywhere".

And just how much of his own net worth is Harry Koza
putting up as a bet on his oddsmaking? Heh. Has that
"global strategist" even offered odds or is he only blowing
smoke out his backside to give some scribbler at the
_Globe and Mail_ a hot tip? There's a reason why the
items you see in the press are called "stories".

Ahem. Actually, when a loser pinko uses the word
"actually," that means that the pinko is about to tell
one or more lies. Now, lets see if "Democracy
Highlander" fits the profile:

Honey, when you've got all the "laws and rules" that
dictate the behavior of the economy as perfectly worked out
as you suppose them to be, write us back from your private
tropical island beach compound. Until then, you're only
embarrassing yourself in front of those of us who know
better than you. (Sheesh!)

People like you, toots, who've predicted all twelve of the
last none Great Depressions, are the mindless crowd
touting uneconomic mythologies like "controlling the
commanding heights of the economy," "the power of
regulation," "godlike intelligence of the visible foot
of government," and "supervised slave trade furthers
social goals."
Yes, you're an advocate of slave trade. Nothing else
would be the opposite of the free trade you despise
so much.
Oh, and you _do_ fit the profile of a loser pinko (i.e.,
soft-core socialist who, after the revolution comes,
expects to be sitting pretty as one of our new rulers).

Wow. That last paragraph illustrates just who is
"mindless" around here, honey. (Free clue: It's you.)
When the unemployment rate in the US soars past Germany's
and England's, then I'll worry. Until I tell you to, don't
bother your little head about the economy. Left on your
own, you obviously don't know what you're talking about.
