[Pentegarn]

The thing that pisses me off is I have relatives that lived through the real depression and calling this slightly uncomfortable economy a depression is an insult to what they went through. If Coolie thinks this is a depression, he will be sorely lacking in coping skills should an actual depression happen.

Here's some facts for you Coolie:

In the last 2 years, I have not once had to migrate from state to state looking at sign after sign saying "No employment here, move along drifters"

I have not had to save bacon grease as a substitute for lard.

I have not had difficulty finding food at stores.

I have not waited in one bread line.

I could go on, but I hope you get the point. When these things all start becoming part of our daily lives, then you can talk to me about a depression.
