Am I the only one tired of reading "Doomsday if"

[JustFiveMoreMinutes]

Simple straightforward question to the doomsayers,

WHAT ARE YOUR SUPPORTING ARGUMENTS FOR YOUR STATEMENTS?


"If this bailout doesn't pass... DOOMSDAY"
Pass by WHEN and why is $700 the Magic Number?
What if it's passed in 10 days as opposed to 5, where is the evidence of Doomsday?

"Could face a Great Depression".
Again, what supporting evidence?

"How about if we just go with $200M"
Where is the evidence this amount will actually help?

"Let's suspend campaigns"
WHY? We have cell phones, net-meetings, email, fax, etc.
WHAT supporting argument is there for being ONSITE when all of our Call-Centers are now in INDIA?



I'm getting so tired of hearing 'Doomsday' with no support of the claim.
