Earlier I only mentioned the coming problem with China. The imminent catastrophe about to engulf Europe will shake every tenant of modern day economics to the core. There is a terrible fate awaiting the worlds middle class. Money that is not protected through proper asset allocation and gold holdings is doomed to disappear. CX will be frantically planning ahead for what they know is a much changed world. I suggest that those who are looking for a career based on expansion will be sadly disappointed. We will be in survival mode for the next 5-10 years. There is no easy path out of 30 years of deficit spending. The company will shrink in towards its core. Those who are not close to it will find their connection to the company attached by a very thin thread....

Clearly humour is lost on you...

You keep proving my point: FOX = no sense of humour too!

....I use humour in response to your comment and that is all you can come back with? I suspect my original comments rattled your 'career planning' cage a bit... You'll get over it. As for Fox...it's the only balanced network on TV...hence their ratings are almost double that of it's nearest competitor. Still, I find it curious your seeming obsession with the network.... I guess the truth is difficult to take...whether it's from me OR Fox.

For all the pessimists... do you all really think that the world is going to STOP if Greece possibly defaults and China reduces exports??? I agree that there will be a slow down but a total collapse to ZERO consumption won't happen...

Greece has defaulted!!!!!!! That just leaves Italy, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, UK, USA and eventually China. Who is left at the end, the federal reserve?

It's amusing to watch the mass surprised at each
weeks headlines. The world is bankrupt.
Unbacked paper currency's do that.
If you're not into gold/silver/commodities
or land you'll be feeling the hurt soon.

I'm actually surprised we're still in business.
Figure with 18-24 months the need for flying
will be far down the list after, food, shelter &
health care. No need for airlines or at very least
the need will be halved.

The question no one is asking publicly,
is to WHOM is all this debt owed?

A few select family's
Wouldn't it be easier for every country to refuse
to pay its debt.. And carry on

Couldn't agree more. The debt banks pushed on to countries such as Greece was invented out of thin air, it never existed as anything tangible in the first place. When institutions such as Goldman Suchs can leverage up to twenty times, it is no surprise we are in the state we are now. Who are these banks owned by, well the Rothschild cartel springs to mind. Thats what this "crisis" is all about, making the .1% even richer.

Liberals are not interested in a balanced point of view... does not suit their agenda.

A quick glance at the clowns on MSNBC, will show you what kind of morons live on the other side of the house!

KK, remember the actual history of events.

Was the free-market philosophy including little regulation of the financial sector a liberal idea?

I have already bought hundreds of bottles of water and crates of baked beans and spam, stocked up on batteries for my flashlight and loaded my shotgun.

711, guess your not familiar with Barney Frank and Franklin Raynes?

Can't get much more liberal than that...complete thieves

The tip of the iceberg and without FOX nobody would be the wiser.

Historical fact, so don't bother defending it.

Ultimately, all politicians are self promoters and thieves, just look at the ones in CX.
