How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

But Chancellor Angela Merkel said Germany "cannot and will not issue a blank cheque for all banks, regardless of whether they behave in a responsible manner or not."
Thats soo pre2008 crash - come on Angela - the State is now the Daddy to clean up the mess when the wee Piggies have desterted the party.
Responsibilty - shucks - come on - the only responsiblity a modern politician has is just how much money he can fill his boots with before he heads for the hills.
Just ask your pal GWB.
Have you seen the little Piggies ?
Crawling in the dirt
And for all the little piggies
Life is getting worse
Always having dirt to play around in.
Have you seen the bigger Piggies?
In their starched white shirts
You will find the bigger piggies
Stirring up the dirt
Always have clean shirts to play around in.
In their styes with all their backing
They don't care what goes on around
In their eyes there's something lacking
What they need's a damn good whacking.
Everywhere there's lots of Piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon.Last edited by AlfredJPruffock; 2 October 2008, 07:35.Comment

Should have read this earlier, might have avoided carping out my long Euro/$ position for a big loss.
More advice please Cybertory.

The £ has dropped 20% against the EURO err...I'm glad I'm in the Euro zone. Just goes to show that going into the Euro was the right idea.
I'm alright JackComment
