What a bunch of idiots. What the hell can be such a great deal to line up in the middle of the night to buy. What the hell are they saving? Ten, Twenty dollars!? I think these people just get caught up in the herd mentality.

Obviously these people are oblivious to the economic crisis that we are currently facing. The U.S dollar is collapsing. The housing market is collapsing, the stock market is collapsing, the credit markets are collapsing, oil is going to over $100.00 a barrel, gas is over $3.00 a gallon, food prices are going through the roof and these people line up in the middle of the night to shop like nothing is wrong.

If you listen to the talking heads on the news channels today you would think that everything is fine and dandy. They were in the malls talking to these idiots that lined up in teh middle of the night and asked them if they were worried about the economy and record gas prices. The shoppers were all full of smiles and saying they weren’t worried at all. They just want to shop and enjoy themselves.

There was this other reporter who was doing a report from a Walmart and that store was empty. He actually said the store was empty and they panned the camera around the store to show not one customer in sight. Now of course this propagandist had to put a positive spin on this to keep the American people oblivious to reality and keep them living in their dream world where America is can do no wrong, said that the reason the store was empty is because all the people came in to buy from 5am to 11am when teh sale was on and now that the deals are over they all left. Yeah, I buy that reason, keep on telling it, I am sure the sheeple will believe it.

And to put icing on the cake, I read today that the wall-street firms in a year with record losses,  announced that they would also be paying record bonuses to their employees. The rationale for this bullshit was that since the losses were not the fault of the employees , they should not be made to suffer. OH Really!!!! Then who’s at fault. The employees are the ones that trade for the client. So, screw the client, it is his fault he lost money, real good.

Oh, one thing I would have liked the talking heads ask the shoppers is ” are you paying with cash or credit today?” I guarantee they were all paying with credit. Credit we no longer have. Nice, real nice!
