well jon, you're right, now what're you gonna do about it?  you can
either gripe or you can treat it like an investment opportunity the
likes of which come less than once a decade ;)

just make sure you don't panic when the inevitable short squeezes
happen, like today.  we know what the trend is, and the fact is even
the fed is not big enough to bail this one out, in my opinion.  the
only thing that can prevent the implosion of the financial sector is
some kind of positive event of *even greater* magnitude...  maybe
friendly space aliens dropping by for a visit?  lol.
