They are a curious bunch, number counters and gold stackers. They make an absurd amount of money by simply moving around money, holding on to it, passing it along. Does this seem strange? The other quality of bankers that is unshakable, they are always optimists, the market is getting BETTER AND BETTER, look at all of this money wow I am so happy. Bankers also know that they have to always keep it good because if it gets bad people just won't have money for them to play with.
And this makes the news I have been hearing kind of shocking. I saw a bar today, that was supposed to be Bay Streets hangout. The men in their were very nicely dressed, beautifully groomed, and they all looked like someone was going to shoot them in the head. Then they were saying things like this could be as bad as the 1930's and the depression. IF YOU ARE A BANKER, FOR NO REASON DO YOU JOKE ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THAT. That is even worse than saying I hope terrorists don't bomb the Super Bowl, because George Bush is going to be there for sure, and we would stop the war if someone assassinated him.
When you make statements like that, people listen, and clearly you don't say things like that on TV when it effects your life so much. Thats how serious it really is, when you have men that make their entire livelihood on the global markets. Talking about how they see signs for the worst crash in history, good luck bankers, when the people re-build their own systems, I will make sure to let you in to smell the money every once in a while.

i read an article today that had something along the lines of "accountants search for clues that the market will get better".
but this leads me to think that obviously if they are searching for clues, they are bound to find some. but it probably won't reflect the economy as a WHOLE. same as when you wrote that paper about looking for clues in a crimescene that lead to a certain outcome instead of looking at ALL the evidence.
moral of the story is: even when they were looking for clues they couldn't find any. worried? i am.
But if they are searching for answers in a system that they created and maintain, does that not make you think.
