Taken in context he’s saying two things are working together to make things worse: the rapid speed and scope of our current circumstances is worse than what happened during the Great Depression. [/quote]

And again I have to disagree. *In my opinion*, the faster the collapse the faster the recovery. The economy is bigger and more efficient than it was 70 years ago so its not surprising the speed/scope are bigger as well.

And come on now, really. The stock market can only decline so much and unemployment can peak at what, maybe 30% before the rich people realize they are going to have to start growing their own food if they don’t spend money?
