So that Reno thing was just a preview, then.  Coming soon to a neighborhood near you.

Why is it the leftist response to the abysmal failure of their economic ideology, no matter how many examples present themselves around the world, is "well that's only because we didn't do enough of it!"? A variant of this response after the collapse of the Soviet bloc was "they didn't have the right people in power". Funny that leftism's contemporary advocates are always, presumably, the "right people" to pull it off. And maybe fill a few mass graves on the way, of course.

Navigating the Eurozone Crisis
 
The financial news of the week again is about the eurozone and we are seeing lots of entities come up with lots of possible solutions about how to solve the eurozone problem. They all of course rest on what to do about Greece. The problem is, they are coming from the wrong angle. From STRATFOR’s point of view, Greece does not have a particularly bright future as a state before the eurozone crisis is taken into account."

"end the uncertainty"

"chilling effect"

Translation - debt crisis is threatning the confidence people have in the Euro...but it is driven entirely by poor political choices...and all Cameron has to offer is "recapitalization of banks" & more funds for bailouts (and I guess both would be funded by more debt!)...how this restores confidence depends upon how prone one is to believing in faerie tales!
