I was kind of surp'ised today, or the weekend, I can't remember which, to read that "America" had agreed to bail out the world, at a cost of $700bn. "Fair play", I hazarded. Now that isn't happening I do wonder where our world is going; I wonder where we will all be in a year's time, without the mighty guiding force that is the US. And I figure I don't really have a clue, and I don't really have a say: I realise I am one of the dictated-to, the told-how. Am I really going to see the difference - to feel the difference? I worked for Wachovia last year - is it fucked? Am I fucked more or less than the head honchos of the London operation - fiscally? relatively? Well yes I suppose I am - but I always was.
Fear not, ye who have little. And that's most of us, I reckon.
Adjus'ment is where it's at.
I just don't know. I ain't got obligations, which is a luxury at times like this....
