The stock market is a magical place where a bunch of rich douchebags go to make believe they're exchanging actual money all day. It's kind of like Second Life or WoW except whenever these guys freak out or panic the whole planet suffers and not just their magician's guild or whatever. It seems strange that such an important thing to our economy can be so affected by emotions but what do I know, I just write poetry. Anyway, hot stock tips for today and the next few years: buy stocks in fast food, cigarettes, cheap alcohol, guns, coffins, pessimism; avoid stocks in American spirit, American pride, American anything, really.

Bad Attitude! Have you never been to Minyanville?
All monetary economics are make-believe economics. The little pieces of paper that you'd have in your wallet if you had a job aren't any more intrinsically valuable than the ones and zeroes they're moving around at the stock exchange. An economy is basically a bunch of promises or illocutionary acts. If you're playing poker, the statement, "One eyed Jacks are wild" is "make believe", but that doesn't mean they're not "really" wild. Of course, if your promises aren't worth anything, then your currency falls in value. That's what Henry IV 1 and 2 and Henry V are about.
Basically, what we need is a big war with France.
