  2. Lets just get the F****ing recession and be done with that.

    Crash the stockmarket and lament our fates. Enough of this doom and gloom and what iffing nonsense. There is no need to keep dragging yourself on hot coals everyday.

  3. Right now I think we are at 4

    I'm concerned that the current slow down / recession we are in could turn worse and take to 5.

  5. Depends on our leadership.
    Hopefully no protectionism, but with a democrat to restore our image.

    Market wise, we could have a long period of "dead money"-I give it a 7.5....I think were in for some long term deflation in asset prices...

    Real economy wise-a 5. We will get through it.

    As for "trouble right now", I'd say 2 or 3. But unfortunately, it's like being in quick sand up to your ankles... it's not critical this moment, but will be soon and you know it's likely there is no escape.
