I lived through he 1987 adjustment. Interestingly I'm still alive. Humm? Maybe the sky is not falling!!
And I survived the dip during the dot com bust. I'm thinking this might cause people to rethink their ways. We have become a welfare state and this is more welfare.

To be fair, it would take a couple thousand points of dropping before it reached the panic that happened in 87 when it dropped 22%. Now that was a crisis. Apparently the 700+ point drop that happened still only constituted a 7% drop. Definitely a very easy point to recover from if allowed to. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Stock_Exchange#Events

apparently you aren't one of those willing to sustain the losses from no
bailout plan.
Currently, the House is in recess until Thursday. I think the market
response tomorrow and Wednesday may have some influence upon whether
anything happens on Thursday.
