Unfortunately, the long term effects of the financial meltdown will be felt for years to come in more government intervention in the economy, larger debts, more people ensnared by government handouts, possibly governtment run health care and rationing, higher energy prices and an economy that never really recovers. The housing market might come back, but will our country?

Sorry, I’m just in a real blue mood today. My Eeyore side is really coming out.
