Another Great Depression?!?!!



We've been watching the collapse of economy, getting worse & worse and it's pretty scary! With all the foreclosures, wallstreet, credit and trust issues etc... It really is starting to look like the great depression (1930's) Uff I dont even want to think about it, but at the same time it's reality and we need to be concerned about whats going on.

My friend ( Cinzia ) just got back from Europe, Italy to be specific and she was telling me how bad it is over there too! Not just the economy/Euro, but also the racisism. Incredible how times change and how everything is cyclical. I remember back in 1999 when I used to live in Europe every country had their own currency. It was amazing! The dollar was so strong that you'd change it and do miracles with it!! Now racism is something that needs to go away already...

Funny thing is that in my country (Colombia) people are getting richer and richer everyday ....What the heck are they doing??? I imagine.. 'PALO TORCIDO NUNCA ENDERECE!' Ha!

November 4 is the election and you can feel the tension in all the debates that we've been watching. Oh people I dont want to be negative, but dont think that the new president (hopefully Obama) is going to clean all the Bush-Shit he gave us! That is gonna take awhile and dont hate me, but like I said before, everything is cyclical and it will definitely take a long ride before we get back on track! So tighten up your wallets and be aware because this is looking more like a third world country where there's just two clasess::Rich or Poor! Plus I hope you are not a racist, remember racism is not only about color it's also about a way of living!!! Let's be more counscious and open with people no matter if they are from out of town, speak poor English, or don't look cool, BE REAL FOR REAL!!!! Let's try to make this world a better place!!!!! Even with the economy and chaos let's be thankful for what we have!

P.S. My Boyfriend thinks the Antichrist is coming... LOL!

Cheers from La Editora!

La depresion ,creo yo ,es uuna parte de la U de las civilizaciones donde en estos momentos estamos en la parte mas baja de la U o sea en la curva y es un proceso ciclico .Mi pregunta es Quien se favorece con estos procesos ? Los ricos son mas ricos,los pobres mas pobres,los bancos nunca pierden ,el racismo no desaparece,con o sin depresion son pocos los cambios para la clase trabajadora y asalariada de nuestros paises tercermundistas.

at least gas prices are going down...considerably for those of us WHO DRIVE (a LOT) change is not around the corner... but as you sais it has to get better just for the logic of cycles! For now, do all you can do, even hotdogs at Vagabond's. Safest place to be is at school.

By the way, nice exitlude "my boyfriend thinks the anticrhist is comming" hahahah I can hear him speaking!!!
