I think it is EXTREMELY important to point out that this is unseen. An economic disaster of this level has never before been seen. We are talking global on this. Whoever comes out on top in the end of all of this will be the new superpower.. will they be for the next 100yrs? Or 200yrs? Will this start WWIII??? Scary shit alright

Meh, the world's gonna end in 2012 anyway.

this has happened many times before, and it will continue to happen. dont be surprised if someone starts getting press by touting a one world currency as the way to solve this world wide financial crisis.

yeah I have heard that is what will happen.. funny though the Euro is said to be worth more.. but as a "union" they can't decide how THEY will deal with the bad position "THEY" are in.. their fucking currency shouldn't be worth more than the dollar, they are in the same shit boat we are in and we own WAY more weapons so we win. Fuck the EU
