World melt down?

USA and world financial meltdown averted at the end of President Bushs term.
Was it merely postponed? The Greek debt debacle, the Chinese stock losses, the USA economy way over inflated .......and NOW the NYSE is shutdown for, at this time, 2.5 hours, with no start up scheduled.

Could all the many doom forecasters be right?

What do you think? New world wide economic depression?

 I’d be willing to bet someone else’s money that the WSJ blacked out because the NYSE stopped. I can just see some day traders soiling their boxers when their trade froze and all of them jumping to the WSJ at the same warp(ed) speed and screwing the WSJ pooch.
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Ever wonder what you will do when the general population decides to riot, loot and do pervy things to old bikers? ?*
