We had the greatest market of our short dumb lives, and you just couldn’t be happy with that could you? We awoke, for months upon months, every morning to find riches and spoils filling our coffers and bread lining our pockets. My what a terrible situation…(extra sarcasm)
Now we have the market from hell, rising out of bed every morning bracing ourselves, not knowing if we’re to receive a few hundred points up or a beating down. But it doesn’t really matter either way, because these moves are only here to screw with our emotions. At the end of the month, they all average out to a big load of nothing. Sweat and tears and kids crying at their shadows.
I want back my bull market and I want it back now. I’m tired of being on pins and needles every single freaking day, worrying about the financial state of affairs in countries whose names and languages I can barely pronounce quite literally on the other side of the planet. Over half the US didn’t even know these places existed 5 years ago.
The currency markets and interconnectedness of trade is just ridiculous. It was bad enough going to war with these places on a global scale just a century ago. Now a smog laden city with a hand-washing problem in China gets a cough and I get rewarded with a sell-off in Chicago. Greece, inventors of public corruption, exercise their trade and I get a bond selloff in New York. Africa – AFRICA! – sucks and Europe teeters from that…I mean what else would Africa have?
Screw it, let’s erect some trade barriers again. Globalization inevitably boils down to having to trust that illiterate countries are meticulous with paperwork and mafia run countries don’t have theft problems. It’s almost uncanny, really.

As that lady on T.V. said.
Fuck it .I quit.
Detroit is basically a foreign country. With strange local languages that a majority of Americans can not understand. You should feel right at home. This tape is Detroit.
