The worst part was the stop-and-stop-and-rarely-go traffic trying to get OUT of the parking lot. It took us 30 minutes to leave. EEK! I was astounded-appalled at the lines waiting to get in to some stores, including Coach, where even with a discount (and I think they had additional discounts then, but I am not sure) their merchandise still seems vastly overpriced.

We’ve been lining up for 20-30 minutes/years/decades to give anyone who’ll take it responsibility for bad outcomes resulting from stupid decisions we’ve made. Many of us think well but act indulgently. We have bad financial habits. We do as we will and then whine for help, as people and corporations. It will end soon, but I don’t know how… the Mayan calendar ends in 2012…

It means most of us are still “consumer” idiots… and “smart” suites – from Wall Street to boardrooms – will always find ways to “create” wealth for themselves… and poverty for everybody else… no matter who the President is.
