Wall Street Taliban

Dennis Blair, the new Director of Intelligence, says we have more to fear from Wall Street than Islamic terrorists. I don't always go for doomsday scenarios, but there is no doubt that periods of economic distress in history have resulted in great upheavals. Look at the Great Depression and the rise in both fascism and communism. If the forecasts are as dark as many predict, we might be in for a stormy ride these next few years. Time to batten down the hatches and barricade the home fortress from the barbarians at the gate. Who as it turns out live on our own Wall Street.
