It's time for some knowledge and amusement...

I'm pretty frustrated with the politicians, fat cat bankers, greedy corporate honchos and media pundits during this time of economic bewilderment and fear, perhaps you are as well. It is fair to say the ship of Commerce is rudderless with an 'every man for himself' mentality...oh yeah, every woman, too! The government is in cahoots and everyone appears hell-bent on saving the dead and dying. 

This week some interesting pieces were sent to me that gave me a chuckle, even a laugh, and I thought passing these along might brighten, enlighten or frighten you, your choice...

For a concise and very easy to understand explanation of what has happened and is happening, check out: http://crisisofcredit.com/

Once done with that, enjoy the top two commentators on the newspeople and media:

Colbert: http://paul.kedrosky.com/archives/2009/03/stephen_colbert.html (Doom Bunker)
Stuart: http://paul.kedrosky.com/archives/2009/03/a_few_minutes_w.html (Nocero and CNBC) 

On a positive note, the stimulus efforts from 9-10 months ago are now beginning to filter down through the system and people are actually getting some relief. All of these 'relief packages' take time to infiltrate the economy, so it is almost time to start looking 24-36 months into the future to see what might befall us next!

Happy trails!
