I predict at least 10 of these could happen, is it for the better?

[Michael R.]

I don't see how any good comes out of it really, but, maybe I'm just ill-informed.

[Loree Everette]

Yikes! A couple of these are our clients! Personally, Justin, I don't think it would be a good thing.

[Justin Bryant]

We could throw another 50 Billion on the GM fire....Hey don't we own part of GM?

Also, home builders like Beazer, does it matter?

[Loree Everette]

Does it matter?

Provocative question.

Other than the ripple effect of double digit unemployment and the reality of financial institutions locking their resources leading to a stalled business environment for the entire world, it probably doesn’t matter that much.

Well, ups and downs are part of Life Itself...as humans I think we are conditioned to sometimes think that "positive" viewpoints are what we ethically are supposed to provide to others when we share ideas with them. That's not realistic.

The learning involved in the cycle of "failure" is many times the catalyst that eventually causes "success" of a system, or individual. Without "failure" we are not driven toward seeking fundamental purposes for our lives, without "failure" (IMO) some businesses, systems, people actually end up finishing in a worse condition in life than if they would have had to adjust and realign themselves during and after failure.

Just a side note - as I have gone through life I now realize that "random", "ambiguous", and "non-predictable" events are a constant variable - not "everything" seems to "happen for a reason"...some things are a "coin toss" or a "roll of the dice" - - -

More: from wikipedia (randomness)
"Randomness, as defined by Aristotle, is the situation when a choice is to be made which has no logical component by which to determine or make the choice (see Buridan's ass). More recently, and more formally, a random process is a repeating process whose outcomes follow no describable deterministic pattern, but follow a probability distribution, such that the relative probability of the occurrence of each outcome can be approximated or calculated. ...."
