Posted By: <b>Patrick McHugh</b><p>Bunning is old school ethics. Maybe to old school but he belives in accountability something many people have forgotten. In Response to CY Soulutions as follows,<br>1. Government buy 2 million forclosed homes burn them to the ground, Total cost 600 billion dollars creates 500, 000 jobs. Also housing is supply and demand issue less supply = more demand.<br>2. GOVERNMENT PURCHASES 1 TRILLION DOLLARS OF S+P 500 FUTURES , THIS CURTAILS STOCK MARKET SLIDE AND SH<br>OWS CONFIDENCE IN AMERICAN BUSINESS.<br>3. Ring fence all toxic assets on all companys books. We need a cooling off period.<br>4. Suspend mark to market accounting on financial institutions for 1 year again we need a cooling off period.<br>5.HIRE A TREASURY SECRETARY with a real plan and integrity. No one wants to work for this man and his only plan is I will make a plan. <br>6. President Obama needs to inspire confidence when he speaks he is our elected leader. <br>7. All members of congress need to come together and come up with plans that inspire confidence not plans that continue to divide the country.<br>8. I could go on and on but I guess my highschool education ideas are not good enough for the american people as congress and the president as well as treasury tell me they have everything under control I hope they are right.

Posted By: <b>marshall barkman</b><p>David.....i think maybe what you should do is instead of looking at data and charts is take a more human approach.

Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>David,<br><br>It's interesting to observe that in the year 1939, at least according to the chart you posted, when Henry Morgenthau, Jr. insisted the New Deal was a failure, a record number of Americans were employed. It's also worth noting that unemployment decreased dramatically in the year after Roosevelt entered the White House, which followed a deep drop that lasted much of Hoover's term. The chart does, however, indicate the stabilization began in a waning days of the Hoover administration ...

Posted By: <b>marshall barkman</b><p>What worked is that the American spirit is the strongest in the world. In order to be 1 at anything there has to be a mental toughness that is stronger than the problem at hand. America does not look like the great depression of the 30's nor will we head into a depression. <br><br><br><br>If you took everything away from me right now and i had to start out with no home and 0 money homeless on the street it would not defeat me. Instead of worrying about how bad things are i would immediatly start trying to figure out how to get back to the top with my talent. The difference between a loser and a winner is that a winner understands losing and learns from the mistakes, a loser continues to make mistakes and at some point gives up hope.<br><br><br><br>The world today is over saturated with competition in all aspects of business, why do banks need 10 branches in a 20 mile radious?. Everyone wants to be a star or athlete and be recognized as somebody important. When i drove to New York to qualify for the 2006 Nationwide Tour event i was shocked at what the scene was, there were 200 people trying to qualify for 14 spots and of the 200 about 170 of them could not play dead in a John Wayne movie much less compete under a pressure packed 1 day event against professional athletes. I was partnered with a guy who on the first tee hit his ball out of bounds and immediatly i noticed a brown stain in his trousers(lol), he three putted 3 of 8 holes and i finally had to turn my back when he putted because it looked like Judge Smails from caddyshack. Somehow the guy was able to make it 8 holes before withdrawing, he shook my hand and said i am sorry for the display i put on today and holding you up, he then took off for the clubhouse. He was 12 over par and i thought to myself what is this world coming to. Even though i had to watch this F&%$ing hack somehow i managed to shoot 70 and miss qualifying by 2 shots. <br><br><br><br>What the country needs is a dose of reality not reality shows. The Lord loves a common man and that is why he created so many of them.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Dennis- If I remember correctly the last time a ban warning was given was after a political thread had gone on for about 4-5 days, several were started and locked, and warnings were given. So far this is only 1 thread and I think it's safe to ask for this to be the only politically natured one, for the time being. I would prefer not to really have them at all but if they are contained to one thread, and don't go on forever, then I don't think they hurt too much. Others might disagree.....regards

You're right: I'm immune from the bad economy because I can't fire myself. Now try to imagine a world where you don't have a guaranteed paycheck -- shudder! -- and you have to wait for the phone to ring in order to get paid -- shock! -- and if the phone doesn't ring you still have to pay out six figures in salaries to employees -- gasp! And imagine a world where if all of your reviews were negative you'd go out of business instead of getting that guaranteed paycheck! Do I need to get the smelling salts out, now?

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Richard, I didn't think Lehman had the most downside in America -- I'm hardly a stock analyst. But I felt that the investment banks were clearly being targeted by the shorts (Bear had just collapsed) and that the subprime mess had yet to really be felt in that sector. Panic and bad news in a sector make stocks go down. And I never dreamed that Bear could collapse; once it did I felt that Lehman was the logical choice to be next due to the perfect storm that was brewing. Hardly a major insight on my part, though.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>David, you can't be an Obama-lover and also hate people that enforce constitutional rights of those accused of crimes (unless you're just jealous -- you'd never be jealous, would you David?). In fact, defense lawyers and defendants alike are tickled pink about Obama's election as it will mean the appointment of a plethora of liberal judges who are thought to go easier on criminals. Obama is very good for business, I assure you.<br><br>And I am very proud of my work and the fact that all of the media in New York think that I'm a very good defense lawyer. I mean, it's not the same as being trashed by every single student of mine on ratemyprofessor.com but I'm still proud of my record. Now I'll tell you what I tell my 'associates': if you work hard, treat people well and are not lazy you can throw off that 'associate' label and really accomplish something someday.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>David, no one cares what you think, especially me. And certainly no one cares if you respect them. I would be remiss not to point out what was sent to me via email a few minutes ago. Of the 321 professors from Skidmore who have been rated on ratemyprofessors.com, your overall rating was number 311. But of course it's the students' fault, not yours. (I have to admit to some surprise, however, that you managed to score higher than 10 of 321 -- are the other 10 in jail for murdering students?)<br><br>Your comment about Obama, of course, makes no sense. Where did you get your degree? And plenty of people go to law school but very few are successful lawyers. I am fairly certain, however, that if you were in a profession in which the paycheck was not a guarantee, you'd be living in a Frigidare box right now.
