*Sigh*



The cynic is me laughs at this kind of joke, but the truth is, once one gets over their anger at the politicians, CEOs, economists and business people who are going to ride this out with smiles but have done their part to cause the situation, one has to take stock of the good things one has and try to do what one can to limit the serious pain and suffering of others who are, as this cartoon suggests, hurt terribly by the current financial situation.

I guess it's kind of like laughing and crying at the same time (but then, I don't know for sure, being a bear of very little brain...)
