Interesting video on the market and social trends.
Something to get yourself off your money worries!

HISTORY'S HIDDEN ENGINE!

History’s Hidden Engine is the result of more than three years of research and creativity by filmmaker David Moore. Moore traveled North America to capture the insights of 17 brilliant minds, then wove them into this film. In just 59 minutes and with the help of pop songs, news footage and cultural images that are familiar to everyone, this documentary shows how social mood drives trends in movies, music, fashion, finance, economics, politics, the media and war.

1. People right now are angry, isolated and alienated
so I'd guess the market's just about fucked. All that remain are the final crash and the world war that follows.

Coincidentally, the girls in the high school near me are out of the Britney inspired slutwear and into jeans and sweatshirts.

I think they could also point to competence in government as a cause, rather than social mood, which seems more of an effect of diminishing expectations.

4. Every person on earth hopes that
because few will live through it and the living will envy the dead.

However, war is never within our control. At its base, it's a rich man's squabble with other rich men. Instead of using their fists on each other, they use our bodies and our work to destroy the bodies and work belonging to their enemies.
