oooh! has the stock market tumbled again? I wasn't listening to the news
still I promised I wouldn't make a big fuss about it all.
Although its difficult keeping it all in.
Wow! I'd managed to not think about it all day. :) which was nice.
I have an idea.
Close the stock exchanges and allow govs/businesses and exchanges to controlledly devalue stocks an ammount that they must.
Dont like it? OK, decide to go and let every single thing break.
don't worry
it'll blow over.
Ahem.
i guess there's nothing else for it we'll all just have to end it all

The people's flag is deepest red,
It shrouded oft our martyr'd dead
And ere their limbs grew stiff and cold,
Their hearts' blood dyed its ev'ry fold.
Then raise the scarlet standard high,
Within its shade we'll live and die,
Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer,
We'll keep the red flag flying here.[12]
erm theres nothing marxist about me or what i suggest
i am pretty certain that the most ardent tory would actually prefer the result of what i might propose to what will probably occur given the pathetically uncoordinated and non urgent reponses from govs so far.
Of course some just look at the proposal rather than what would result from the action cw inaction
Cheroot? Really?
"Since cheroots do not taper, they are inexpensive to roll mechanically, and their low cost makes them particularly popular" so sayeth the wiki.
Surely you meant Cohiba or some other plutocrat brand?
I can lend you a pile of US State Bonds
I've got plenty here sitting the hearth for winter, tonnes to go round! I'll send my man over with a delivery at your convenience, pip pip chap!

When do we start to loot?
Considering you're the only person in the world who understands the economy
I think it's pretty irresponsible you're not keeping track of events.
He's too busy
advising the Irish government.
^ potd
have the germans not done something similar now too?
It is hard to say for sure
the press releases and statements are quite confused and seem to say the opposite things. Even Peston-the poor man's Evan Davies- isn't sure what is going on. The Greeks have but no one really cares about them.

Weren't they quite angry that the irish did that?
Everyone in Europe was scratching the Oirish
off the Christmas card list and the big pot of EU grants list. Then Hypo real estate a big German private bank went back to the German government with tail between legs asking to be bailed out AGAIN for 25billion euros (i think it was euros at least). The Germans freaked out big time and let loose some ill considered statements in a bit of a tizzy.
