Financial Crisis Benefits Obama

As I'm putting on my site 4 Hurting Christians that all this was obviously known about, yet allowed to happen.

Can only be two reasons, first not to panic everyone, so keep quiet, hope it goes away.

Secondly as I'm researching and a believer in the last days, obvious that the Global elite want more control over us.

Create, or least allow a crisis and then pretend to be solving it and do that by introducing more measures.

Terrorism did this, now this is doing the same, we go along with it because of fear and we have no choice.

Those that were in debt to the banks are no in debt to the government with loans that eventually have to be paid back, with the tax payers money.

Don't say I'm alright, I'm in a building society as my site's provided links, and proof, it will affect you too.

Anyone and everyone will suffer, as they reclaim it one way or another, whether through tax on cars again, or petrol, or tax on the pay packet, or cuts in services, or council tax rises, they will get it back.

I predict worse to come, and I'm not expert or prophet, but unlike Peter Jones of Dragons Den, saying things are now on the up, anyone can see what is coming, due to all the factors put together, credit card debt, 10p tax scrapped, house prices falling, people behind in mortgages and unemployment and, list is endless and spirals out of control, unless action is taken, trouble is, that action takes away more of our freedoms, and masses go along with it, because the delusion is that it's doing some good, getting rid of the fat cats etc.

But it comes down to control, if you are in debt, then someone owns you.

I don't envy anyone taking that job on January 20, 2009. He will have his hands more than full trying to exricate himself, us and the world from the unbelievable mess the current administration and congress left him.

For every move he does or doesn't make, he will be damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.

It hasn't changed my presidential vote, and it has reinforced my Senate vote. The economic downturn has made me seriously consider moving home to NH from NYC after I graduate so that I can use nearly 100% of my paycheck (once I find a job) to pay down my student loan debt faster.
