This article made me absolutely sick. And some of the comments posted have been seemingly flippant- trying to point out the benefits that a Depression would eventually bring. Could you imagine the carnage in the meantime? My husband and I live off of his $30,000 a year salary and my medical student loans. We would be absolutely ravaged by a Depression, and to hear people even speculate about potentially teaching rich republicans a lesson in the process makes me want to vomit. My husband certainly would be out of his restaurant industry job if a depression descends and we would then lose our house and not be able to have children for any foreseeable future. We have got to keep McCain out of the White House because it is disgusting the way he would so thoughtlessly sacrifice the happiness of many for the comfort of a few of his cronies. I feel like we are moving back in time to a feudal system with right wing extremists leading the way. Clinton or Obama- who cares? Just get us out of this nightmare!
