It's not a dig and I'm not trying to incite anything. It's just what's happening.

Sorry - nicolem! Actually all we need to do to prevent an economic meltdown is have every man, woman, and child in the US send in $33,000 to the IRS. The national debt would be paid off and we could get back to "normal". See? Wasn't that simple?

Is that before the 'penalties & interest' they charge?

I'm still curious to know how NJ will weather this meltdown. Lots of commuters are tied to these firms, and I bet a lot of them will have to move away to find work.

I would say deep painful correction. We Americans need to give up part of the wealth we gathered in last 7/8 yrs.
