what's going on?

i don't even want to know ...

the national debt
corporate buyouts
military defense spending
education and health care system
my retirement savings
unfair federal income tax collections

these things do not look good to me

my house's assessed value is now back down near what it was in 2005 when i sold it. i'd hate to be selling a house right now.

interests rates are so low, nearly half now (Emigrant: 3.00) of what they were 1.5yrs ago (5.50)

i wonder how much worse the state of money affairs can get and how it will impact our everyday lives. i don't think anyone knows ...
