Kiss Those Blues Away The Alternative Way
Reg Laws
What with the terrible weather causing hardship and misery to millions of people throughout the world, we now have a global financial crisis.
Banks going to the wall and other financial institutions having to be bailed out by various governments,causing economies that are already fragile to be plunged further into the mire.
This means more misery and hardship to millions of people, not only to the fat cats of Wall Street and London but to ordinary people with families trying to make ends meet, trying to keep a roof over their heads, food in their stomachs,wondering whether their jobs are safe.
In England we have a saying when Wall Street sneezes the London stock exchange catches a cold, this time it would appear that the whole of europe and the world will suffer.
Lets hope that the governments of the world can put their heads together and sort out this mess, and hopefully learn from this so that the people will not have to endue these hardships again.
