Never Again

I sincerely hope that I'll never hear the words "Main Street" or "Kitchen Table" again. What with the global economy collapsing and the Canadian election plodding on, it's almost all you can hear. "It's going to spread from Wall Street to Main Street". "Canadians are tired of hearing about the boardroom table, they want to see what their government will do for them, at the kitchen table". Yuck! Makes me want to puke.

So I wonder what to think about the economic collapse that swings wildly up and down like a yo-yo. First it's doom and gloom. Then a market rebound. Then a market dive. Then back up. What a roller coaster. I wonder if this is the long anticipated recession that never ends. After all how can you have infinite growth on a finite planet? At some point you can't grow anymore. That's a fact.

Something though, keeps telling me that this is not the end. That the global economy has much more destruction to wreak before it fizzles out. We certainly don't want to leave a habitable world behind for future generations. Don't we?
