I think we all like to be right. I think the posters who are celebrating the downside results lately, are celebrating being right more than they are wishing for the financial system to collapse. Is it really surprising that one us would brag about calling something right? These recent convulsions are a huge vindication to those endowed of the opinions espressed on this blog, in the face of almost universal rejection for years. A flop in the stock market or a business failure here and there is a stimulus/reminder that the convictions held were valid. You might even say we are celebrating the possibiliity that the financial system might become more rational. We will see the possiblity of profiting through hard work and preserverance as opposed to being confronted by a fraudulent game every day, one that pushes puchasing shelter in a resonable way further and further out of the realm or begs for debt slavery.
