Worse Than Better
Well, the economic crisis seems to have gone from a stable state of rapid decline to a rollercoaster of small turns to the positive followed by sudden bouts of tragedy. It seems that the best choice from ‘08 may very well have been the great Cthulhu (Why vote for the lesser of two evils?).
Perhaps instead of “hope” and “change” we should have had the motto of simply “Despair.” If nothing else it would have been accurate advertising in politics. But then, we don’t vote for accuracy, we vote for the most appealing lie. In fact, things have gotten so bad that even CNBC is slowing down on their predictions that sunshine and puppies are in the near future. This is supplemented by the fact that the majority of their outside experts are looking more grim each day and have been recommending more short sells rather than investments.
However, the Hitchhiker’s Guide may still have the best advice.
Don’t Panic
Things have to get better right? Less a question, and more a fact. Things at some point will get better. We just need to hope that the place of improvement is somewhere before the absolute bottom.
