Saturday Morning Video

Its difficult to stay optimistic in these times, especially when you are awaiting the end of law school and the onset of stifling loan repayments.  It is even harder when the bad times have gone on since you were 14 or 15 years old.  The recession was the final straw, but the decline proceeded steadily for eight years before the market crash.  Terrorist attacks, wars, spending sprees, bigger houses, gas guzzling SUVs in every other driveway, and a previously unimaginable concentration of wealth.  Without delving into statistics or CBO publications, one must be blunt here: the recession was not unexpected; it was merely a culmination of many earlier events.  It is in that light that this video must be shared.  To quote the best line from it, "the 2000's suck".
