3. There was a story on the news last night about a guy going after Lehman ex-execs
 ...for a similar reason; he lost most of his earnings and savings because of the negligent, criminal acts of the executives who still walked away with billions of dollars. He said part of those billions are his, the execs essentially stole the money from he and other investors, and he wants it back.

Should be an interesting case.

6. My sister is in software sales, and she said the same thing.
 Budgets were frozen for many of her clients in September. She's not sure if her forecasted deals will close in Q4 for the same reason. She's worried about being laid off, but aren't we all?
 

Wow..............I've bought $40,000 worth of software over the past two months

Bush's economy?  Things were terrific before the democrats dominated congress (where the purse strings are).

Where's the praise and cheers for all the other years?

Seems to me the stock market and lay-offs started when they started touting Obamawanna as a shoe-in!

I think maybe they better start looking at their Savior for the reason the economy is tanking.

So you really didn't lose it because you never had it.  You can't lose what you never had.  That's like saying you lost $57 million because you didn't get the lotto numbers right.

And I highly doubt trumad could earn $100K in 3 years, much less one.

Well, well, DUmmies going broke due to the economic crisis, I guess there is a silver lining to that cloud after all.

The economy started tanking in 2006, then took a MASSIVE dive on Nov 4.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
