Another Great Depression?

In the roughness of today's economy we have some loud mouth folks calling this era another great depression. Is it a great depression? or are people just greedy that they are depressed because they can not get what they want? Now I myself know the difficulties of getting by. The failing job market in the once high and mighty California has gone down the toilet faster than last nights creamy mac and cheese....and believe me, the unemployment office moves slower than my dead grandmother (God rest her soul) that by the time they cut your already "not enough" check, your sleeping on the tragic landfill they call sidewalks, and eating office left overs from the 7-11 garbage can, okay, not really but you can imagine it happening, right?

The uncompromisable truth is that we are not in the depression of the 30's. I hardly see skin and bones, standing in long lines, dramatically shivering from the piercing cold wind chill, holding up there silver tins for a cup of daily rotten vegetable soup. What I do see is a lot of spoiled rotten people who are so easily irate because they can not obtain that brand new 2010 Lexus SUV to seat their 2.5 children, one of which is a dog...

No, the only reality that I can behold is that some of us are reduced to eating select meats from the usual prime. So the answer to the question is no, this is not a great depression, the only great depression is seeing a vast amount of people griping and complaining about things that are really not that important. There is more to life than the wasted material possessions, which in most cases will eventually deteriorate away along with all the smart ideas and evil plotting you schemed against others while you laid comfortably on your California king beds, sucking on tart flavored grapes.

And that, my friends, is The Uncompromisable Truth....
