Uncertain, anyone?
It;s been a while since I’ve updated this space, in part because I’ve been watching with interest the ridiculous goings on of the political hopefuls in this run-up to election day. I’m sure we can all agree that a sea change is almost certain; the majority of Americans are scared and have no idea where we’re heading as a nation. One thing is certain – we’re not coming back to the way things were before the financial collapse; we were living through an illusion at any rate, fueled by easy credit and a desire to live like we thought we should live, not bound by the ugly reality of paychecks and bills. We’ll continue to see more and more whores come out of the woodwork, taking advantage of a populace wracked by worry, in order to make their millions through book deals and speaking engagements. It’s all quite depressing, when you stop and consider where we are. As for your host, I’ll be keeping watch on the 50 states looking to get to get to the bottom of what has now been revealed as a fraudulent foreclosure process, and waiting for the other shoe to drop. This entire episode will end badly, as homes will continue to drop in price due to a bottleneck in determining who owns what property. Would you buy a house the bank owns when you’re not sure if you’ll be tied up in court 2 months after you buy it? Meanwhile, I watch with happiness as the miners are pulled out and returned to life. It’s about time we saw something uplifting in a pretty desolate global landscape.

Raw Capitalism will see us through. The weak and the poor will suffer as is their lot. The best advice don’t be one of them. Work hard, save, spend wisely…this is a nation of individuals, not a collective. A central government with too much authority will only lead to terror in the streets. Individuals got themselves in over their heads and now they must deal with it. The Phantom has spoken.

Mr. “Phanton” seems to be on drugs and thinks he’s Jesus Christ as he intones “You will always have the poor”. What planet does he reside on? This idea of “individuality” is crap. Never was, never will be. Humans have always hunted in packs, like their dogs, and will do so, forever. You only achieve the so-called “individuality” when you have enough money to buy it and purchase other dog-packs to protect you. What’s incredibly obvious from reading endless political blogs for the last five years is that the American political mind-set is near dead: no clue, no ideas, no nothing but another greasy burger and a short nap before heading back to the unlivable-wage job. You effin brain-washed losers. Ha, you deserve your coming hell. My dream is to win the lotto and cash it in and then, to get as far away from you fucking losers as possible. Near 90% of you have been “shit” on since you were born and you’ve gotten so low you actually think it’s manna from heaven. You’re pathetic and deserve your miserable end. Myself, the only major issue is how to get as far the fuck away from America as I can get. But, alas, I need the “sin” dollars, too, to get away. So, I’m gonna be stuck and die with the rest of you peasants. Fuck! What a bitch.
