Trusting your earned wealth to the government is like boarding your dog at a taxidermist - sure, you'll get it back. Poverty is the process by which opportunity requires personal responsibility. Universal opportunity creates pandemic poverty because only workers have money to spend. Government can and must provide for the deserving (less user fees) by vigorously flensing the productive.

The VIX is commonly known as the fear index. Curious anti-correlations here. One anticipates propaganda will be overtaken by real time events.

First --
Obama's role seems to be a purveyor of (knowingly false) "good" news to avert panic. I think he knows what is up and is managing the problem to the advantage of the elite who put him in power and against the well-being of the masses who were deceived in the process. This will go on for as long as the masses can be duped by his skin color and charisma.
Speaking of "the masses", a threshhold will have passed when NASCAR can no longer operate in the emerging energy/financial environment. And think of how the failure of GM and Chrysler play into that eventual scenario. When NASCAR fails, Obama will have become irrelevant as a purveyor of "hope" and "change".
JHK is encouraged to write a sequel to "World Made by Hand" called "Cars Made by Hand", which will continue the story of the first epic. Citizens will learn how to make non-motorized vehicles from the frames of old Buicks and Plymouths taken from scrap yards, deweighted, and made to be pulled by horses, oxen, or our own asses (Doodlebugs). Only JHK could tell this story...
