1) Ramblings of those who would have paranoia broadcast exclusively, & decry dealing with markets on a global scale. Irrelevant.
2) More ramblings. This time whining about the horrible things that happen without the global markets. Partialky relevant.
3) Us currency being compared to Zimbabwe. Irrelevant.
4) Office vacancies? I imagine that may have a lot to do with some of the commercial forclosures. Relevant as evidence that this has been going on for several years & it takes Wall St at least 2 years to figure out what's going on in the real economy.
5) Crying wolf over stimulous mony being spent on domestic security. Bt the figures & totals cited in the article, 7/10 of 1%. Irrelevant.
6) Part o FEMA's mandate is having contingencies preplanned for emergencies. It's necessary to work with the localities & have them in the loop. They're the first responders. After all the gripes about lack of coordination when Katrina hit, this article is griping about efforts to correct that. I mean really, is it a big secret where the bridges are? Irrelevant.
7) A series of over the top dumbass analogies that show nothing but how inane the author is & low his esteem of the general public is. The lay public isn't really that gullible or stupid. Irrelevant.

02-16-2009 #6Eastern Europe on the brink of a financial meltdown:
But seriously, the current problem isn't localized at all. There's no regional problems here. This bank business is global. There isn't any one single spot that anybody's going to be able to point at & say "it was them". Irrelevant.

The relevance is: western Europe gov'ts can't allow these countries to revert to socialist type entities. Therefore they will explode their money supplies to prevent these and generating a continent wide hyperinflation in the process.

Alright Then.
