At least we've been through this before...

At least this isn't the first time in history despite what they tell us.

An excerpt from Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States"

"The year 1893 saw the biggest economic crisis in the country's history. After several decades of wild industrial growth, financial manipulation, uncontrolled speculation and profiteering, it all collapsed: 642 banks failed and 16,000 businesses closed down."

And perhaps the saddest part of it all is summed up by my brother-in-law
