not really sure what that comment was in aid of. I didn't say I didn't care about people losing their jobs... and nobody outside of the US has a 401K

well when you loose your job and loose your 401 k don't come on youtube and expect anyone to care. After all - its just the big picture that matters.

Yeah we didnt get affected too badly because we have a good economy, we have restrictions on things like this (unlike the US). But still heaps of people in the US lost everything, their money, their house etc. Moral of the story = getting greedy ruins lives

I didn't say it was a good situation. Part of the reason for the aussie dollar drop against the US dollar was the 1% interest rate cut you guys just got. Low interest rates are good for mortgage holders.

yeah ok but im just talking about the people who lost their houses and virtually everything. this isnt a good situation if thats what your getting at...

A strong US dollar is a good sign. It's one of the ingredients required to get us out of this BAD situation. Historically 65c isn't a bad conversion rate. I was living in Australia when it fell below 50c.

look what im getting at is that this entire situation is more BAD than good. It was caused by a bunch of guys who got too greedy. I just used that holiday as an example

Their plight is also a tad more important than your holiday don't you think? |
