They will never change those stupid policies that are causing their problems if we bail them out now...and then 6 months from now... and then again.
There will be pain, there will be blood but they will rebuild more sensibly.

This is not something that I'd expect to see here at the cellar but it sure is nice to see.

Yes, there will be pain for all of us because of this collapse. It's likely going to affect all of us not just folks out west.
Socialism. Watch it fail. Learn from failure.

That's a good line UG. The US is not the government.....it's people. People like us. Gov't is not the answer to all. We have let this government run wild because we've been comfortable. That is likely to change soon if it hasn't already.
I'm just as guilty or maybe even moreso than the normal citizen. We need more localized control and more involvement. Maybe that would bring us back to reality.
