"The key to understanding the current situation is to understand that house prices, jobs, wages, and pensions in the United States are all being attacked with original-issue debt dollar junk. This will continue until the Middle Class has been completely wiped out... America died two years ago. It is a walking dead zombie country, and anybody who still lives in that country should get re-familiarize themselves with cotton-picking, because once the dollar crashes, the only crop that America will be able to export, is cotton. It will be King Cotton again. It will be 1840 again. The only job available will be as a cotton picker working on a Wal-Mart or Goldman Sachs plantation." ~ Max Keiser
