that picture probably won't work

Dow Jones basically implodes

sorry for underestimating your image code, wevwund

Hmmm...now I'm not financial advisor, but judging by that graph, we're all effed in the A.

I just sold my timeshare in hawaii to a dog for a doggy reach around

Gotta love welfare.

Especially Wall St. welfare.

this will trickle down pretty bad if something doesn't happen though. Small businesses will suffer and jobs will be cut like crazy. This could potentially cripple the middle class, don't be deluded that this is just a bunch of rich dudes fucked by this.

Wow.

lol @ bush's speech convincing the people that the 700b bill would be good.
epic fail

does this mean that now's a good time to buy?

in theory....maybe?

the situation has to get better eventually...right?

haha

wow indeed. And this is right as I'm converting to a Roth

"if you sell now you'll make 25 bucks"

"WOOHOO! SELL SELL SELL!"

"twenty fiiiiiive dollars......ooooh hot wax......ooooh hammer"

let's give the credit banks the $700,000,000,000 and have them pay it back with interest

I'm super pumped for the VP debate on thursday. I'm going to time myself to see how long it takes me to either throw-up, shit my pants, or both...simultaneously.

I wanna see how Palin addresses this.

"what is your opinion of the bailout legislation's failure on Monday?"

"In what respect? Give me a lifeline. I'd like to phone a friend. God will take care of everything."

i plan on laughing a whole lot

what time is it on? i don't want to miss this. if i had cable i'd throw a debate gathering party.

"I'd like to use my mobile shoutout, please?"

this is going to get MUCH worse before it gets better. ah gawd

I like that my picture is a smartie and is changing with the time. And it's getting worse


huzzah!

Either that, or in another decade, we'll consider this vote an epic fail.

Most people are wrong most of the time, remember...

IT'S 1939 OK! GOT A WAR ACROSS THE USA.
THERE IS NOTHING HERE FOR ME TO DO

this is just wallstreet protesting and flexing its political muscles. it doesnt really affect anything because they will fix them selves and make their money back when they feel they got their message across . dont buy into it, unless you are smart and take advantage of the freeforallmoneyfest thats going on right now...

if the dems drag their feet, obama wins by more.

how so?

wish i had the money to start gobbling up stock. everything is dirt cheap right now.

any effect this crisis causes wont last long... maybe a decade at most.

the effects of billing us 700,000,000,000 to bail out failing financial institutions could be with us for 50 years.

your choice. suffer now, things go back to normal.
make things better, suffer in the end.

Yes, if you have the cash, buy buy, buy.

excellent EXCELLENT interview with Lou Dobbs on this, he totally rips on it

Lou Dobbs is the fucking man.

bennyhillifier

my picture is too fucking with the times, man

now it looks like stocks went up after the bailout.

sir, you are failious

I will cut your high school guidance counselor pony nub and giggle with glee

According to your graph, I am now rich. Fuck all you guys, I'm outta here.

wall street after the bailout:

"WE'RE FUCKED! SELL SELL SELL! Oh wait...if we just have faith and continue to invest intelligently the benefits will link throughout the market and it will correct itself. Lolz government!"

let's put this in retrospect

1939 unemployment rate 25 percent

today it's like 2 percent or something

we're never going into anything like the depression again. the government's too involved now.

plus everyone in the world owes america money, and we have the biggest army in the world

I like how people have been drowning in debt for years but it wasn't until CEOs had to sell a car or two that Bush swoops in to bail them out.

Get fucked, no bailout.
