A broker was just on CNN speculating that if the bill fails to pass again the market will go down somewhere between 1000 and 1500 points. The amusing part was his conviction that partisan political gamesmanship was the only thing keeping the government from investing $700 billion of taxpayer money in something that absolutely nobody on the market wants right now.

Robert Frost, "Fire and Ice"

Some say the world will end in fire;
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To know that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
