I find this article kind of silly as it pertains to Gay Marriage as a political issue. The politicians who are voting (or in most cases, not voting) on this issue care little and understand less about the data management side of things, and furthermore when has government EVER been efficient?

Interesting from a database POV, though.

I didn't vote for Barry mainly because it is clear that we would be subject to one party eule for at least 2 years with him at the helm.

Though I could see the benefits of him as prez otherwise. For all they have done wrong, the republicans, with control of one chamber would keep the dems from doing what they do wrong, which for a fiscal conservative like me is a lot.

Obama can easily reach out to the other half by acting like the person he ran as (a moderate and at times conservative dem - something he is not), however, he doesn't have to be too liberal with the people running the house and senate. He can let them do his dirty work.

What are you on? I ask because in another post you say "real estate" will lose 50%, if that is true, then you have a severe price drop in a non liquid asset, also if the recession is as severe as you say it will be, then people will not be spending any money on goods which will drive the price of most goods down resulting in a period of immense deflation, which can be equally damaging.

I don't have an advanced degree in econ like you may, so I don't really get what you are saying but you seem to be "amused" by being overly negative. you are making Roubini sound like a shiny happy person.

Nouriel, is that you?

This guy is the best economist i have ever seen, he has predicted 15 of the last 3 recessions.
