I have been suggesting for a couple of years that we are setting the table for another Great Depression-sized depression.  It will be (finally) triggered by any one of several events, a Saudi implosion being an example of one.

It will be cold comfort if I am correct, as I stand in the bread lines with the millions of other Americans.  However, before I join that line, I will probably assist a few Republican CEOs in exiting their 30th floor corner offices...by opening the windows for them.

BTW, given recent research and biographies, any contemporary liberal who identifies with Wilson is a schmuck.  I refuse to be one.  In fact, we'd have been far better off had we been led at the time by that rarest of things, a flawed but reasonably decent Republican, namely  TR.
