How the Right Hijacked America's Economic Model

Rewriting the Bankruptcy laws opened the door for all of this.
Let me put it this way, before this unregulated markets led to the Tech Bubble, and now the Housing Bubble and the next Bubble to burst will be the Energy market Bubble. Oil Speculators are allowed to drive up prices due to lack of regulation and it won't be too long before the bottom drops out of the energy market. The result will not be a ressecion, it will be a down right depression that will make the 1930's look like a bump in the market.
Oil speculators are driving the price of oil up? Damn, and all this time I thought it was Bush and his cronies at Halliburton. :mrgreen:

Vi I never said that Halliburton had anything to do with oil prices.... You forget I live in the heart of Oil Country and know what's really going on. But one of Bush's cronies is one of the biggest Oil Speculators in the country (and lives about 60 miles from me) T. Boone Pickens.
He's also trying to sell out our water rights in the Texas panhandle.

The oil speculators ... at least the more inexperienced ones will crash. Remember the Hunt brothers and silver?

I guess l should start calling you Disco-Dank, eh? Back in my drinking days I was known as Disco -----, or just Disco for short. And I didn't even own any gold chains.
