I am in the US at the moment and while Wall Street is imploding, the common Joe so far does not seem to be too bad off. Compared to most, Wall Street seems pretty far away.
While it will make it harder to borrow money, things were getting pretty loose before this most recent tightening...probably not a bad thing and may actually encourage people to start living within their means...

So where does the average Joe Blow live? seems to me there are alot of
places in the US that are not unlike some war zones around the world. And
I'm not talking about the gangs and other problems they might have I'm
talking about basic infrastructure.
It kinda amazes me that these fat pigs, who are probably the ones who
lobby the the US government to push down the minumim wages now want
those suckers to pay for it. I think regardless of the economy they should
let those fat pig swollow there own doings and slowly die off, it is the
fault of government that allowed them to become a critical cog in their
economy. In other words they allowed them to get too powerful and in the
end government has no control. But I suppose it really isn't about being the
super economy of the world, but the ability to still have the cash flow to
defend itself which has it more worried. I mean the US has certainly pissed
off a lot of people/countries or taken them to war, killed way more innocent
victoms than 9/11 was ever going to... you know that pissed a lot of folks
off. I think you will need to be able to defend yourself from that for years
to come.... cant do that when your broke. Kinda like what Reagan did to
Russia, Bin Laden learnt this and did 9/11. the US is vunerable without it's
cash.
When I was last in the US it certainly didn't hint to me it was a land of the
fee, I couldn't wait to get back to Canada lol
