Let's put it this way-we will fall into another Great Depression if our elected officials (also known as jackasses) don't get some kind of bailout passed. If they go on their election vacation without getting anything done, the result will be devastating.

Job losses could be massive if nothing is done. In fact, that could be one of the biggest effects.

How much better is Canada's economy compared to ours? I might want to move there if it is.

The economic crisis is global. You really won't find a whole lot of relief in Canada or anywhere else.

That's the most absurd thing I've heard in a while, Mike. You'd move to another country over the current economic situation? That's craziness!

The outcome of the election will greatly determine whether that idea is crazy or not...

The election has nothing to do with it.
But the inverse does...before the bailout failed, and the knee-jerk self-destruction of the market, John McCain was at a campaign rally and was "gloating" that HE did the right thing by suspending his campaign, going to Washington, and helping create this bill.  Erm.....

This election is Obama's to lose at this point in time.
