I am holding out for negative interest rates -- where they PAY me to take and use their money.
Since the name The Great Depression (tm) is already taken, what shall we call this one?
The Great Depression II? -- that almost sounds as creative as Hollywood
The Super Depression? -- rather lame, as well.
Bushonomics? -- yeah I know . . . . political -- waaaah, waaah, waaaaaahhh!! Accountability Sucks, huh?
Obamanomics? -- poor fool. You know they will try to blame the Black Man.
Ok, what else we got to work with, here?
Where are the marketing bs types when you need them?

the "great depression" was the second one in U.S. history
One thing everyone is forgetting: green jobs. This is what will save the economy.
What green jobs? And what financing? Most of the "green" companies outsource the manufacturing out to Asia.... and the major producers of Solar panels aren't even American... Sharp? Mitsubishi? the Japanese and Germans are way ahead of the game in Alternative/Clean energy...
Remember? We didn't think we needed to sign the Kyoto Protocol... because... Yes... We're Americans.. and we're number #1 and Oil is Cheap! We're playing catch-up in this field... like everything else... except maybe entertainment. I think we're number #1 in that field... except our production companies are moving to Canada/Mexico and other countries...

The Great Crash of '08
followed by The GREAT Credit Crunch ('08 to '14) it will last awhile
or just call it the Great Socialist Era..... the word 'Great' is a must have prerequisite to describe our times
Now you are starting to make this sound a Star Wars pre-quel and we will have to start naming them like software releases
Great Depression 0.9
Great Depression 1.0
Great Depression 2.0
geezzz. "Prozac" is right. America's creativity has gone to sheet.
No wonder we cannot write decent bad checks to the world, anymore.
1873 - 1879 (Panic of 1873) aka the long depression
1929 - 1939 Great Depression
2007 - (who knows) *drawing a blank for a name*
