Distracted once again. No one seems to notice that the Russian economy is collapsing, getting worse each day. I feel a domino effect coming our way. Will the media report... a depression? probably not. They'd rather follow those who are stirring the pot. Ida Werrett |

Yep, I've been seeing that, Ida, and you know the media is going to sit on their hands and not do, or say, anything which might directly or indirectly reflect on the Big O. ~*~ When politicians give up on liberty, it falls to poets to preserve it. Or write its epitaph. ~*~ |

At last! Someone sees it my way. Push, push, push that ol' bear back into a corner. Could anyone ever see the USA puttin'( no pun intended) up with Russia ballsing it's way into Mexico? For God's sake, Kennedy took us to the brink of oblivion over Cuba! Nato doesn't need to humiliate Russia, it is a proud nation. Economies will be the last of our worries if this goes down Alice's hole, trust me. |

Thank you all for reading. Sometimes I wish I could just stick my head in the sand like the majority of the population. |

The media here in Europe speak of the Russian crisis, but contemporaneously they speak of America's economy which seems very healthy, +5% ... just heard a reporter say "America flies" ... So hopefully you are on your way up, not down. My wish for you, dear Ida! Here in Italy people are very pessimistic for our own economy. To have a job is still a dream for too many people ... I think it can't get worse than it is now, if it should get worse, I dare not imagine the situation ... Thank you, for expressing very vividly your perceptions. Love and Peace! Margherita |

I am very skeptical about what our media reports. Things are often skewed to fit the occasion. Ida |
