This fucking made my day. I've been against this bail-out, and I'm glad to see it crash and burn. The vast majority of the US opposed this, but, much like the illegal amnesty attempt, people in Washington tend to meander away from their constituency often.
Might not end well, but I seriously doubt that the bail-out would've helped at all. The government intervening in economical matters never ends well  How ya doing, buddy?
Hey, maybe you should try that thing Chie was talking about.

People need to calm down, for starters. A Great Depression-type situation probably won't happen; it's very hard to accomplish by this point.
In 1987, the market fell somewhere around 500 points (22%) near our last economic crisis. For us to match that (22%), we'd need to drop somewhere around 2500 points or so. We've seen worse than this, seriously. Is it still bad? Yes, it is, but don't go thinking that this is the first time since 1929 that the economy has shit itself, folks. Hell, the market in itself is silly. DOW hit 10500 just from Dems and Republicans snipping at eachother earlier. Adding to things, the Great Depression was ballooned by many reasons. Some of you might remember the stress caused by a little something called the Dust Bowl, alongside some issues (trade and what-not with other countries) following WW1, in addition to issues with the Gold standard. It isn't an everyday occurrence, but don't think that we'll end up with 25% unemployment or something of the sort. Stock up on guns and cans of beans if you want though~ There's nowhere I can't reach.

I've seen DOW hop up and down like a five year old on a sugar high for weeks now
OMG IT'S DOWN 500. DOOMED. OMG IT'S UP 500. FUCK YEAH WE RULE. OMG IT'S DOWN 500. DOOMED. Just gotta shrug it off, folks :x Things are going to hiccup quite a lot in the days to come. Let the dust settle, I say. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Just a tip for those who do trading: Apple dropped 18% today =3 Nice time to buy some up. Ebay dropped 11% if you're looking for something that is cheaper per share.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
