the stock market is up here. I think everything else is about to drop off a cliff. especially when the government spending cuts really start kicking in next month. But its good to know from the politicians (who all tend to be rather well off) that we are "All in this together". Be nice if it kicked off some rather more radical politics than the soft middle ground stuff we've had recently. Who knows future posts here might be from "The London Soviet collective" and some over there might be from "The Washington Fuhrer Bunker"
