actually if you are willing to read a few books i would suggest "Freefall" by Stiglitz, "The Myth of Rational Markets" by Fox, or "How Markets Fail" by Cassidy ... these are all very stimulating reads, and will give you much greater insight into the topic than simply watching that horrible piece of trash documentary 'Inside Job'; HOWEVER, in case you read any of these books and fail to understand them (and i am making no assumption that you will because you seem to be such a rational individual), or that you have no time to read, i will sum it up: the US is in economic troubles right now because it blindly followed the incomprehensibly stupid dogma of free market economics for 20 years and the belief that governments (the FED included) have no place intervening in the economy, completely ignoring economic reality (that free markets are prone to a little thing called 'market failure'), and marching into one speculative asset price bubble after another all the while deregulating the economy further according to a misrepresented view of Smith's Invisible Hand

...... sorry to everyone who actually read all that, i got carried away there, i know its boring to most people, but it really really bothers me when people speak about these issues with such authority, as if they knew better than nobel prize winners.... my point being, please please please if you know nothing about economics then do not mention anything about the FED, or economics for that matter.. its actually quite a complicated subject that one cannot hope to understand by listening to some hippy bull about 'bringing down the man' or watching a silly documentary. how do i know this? because i just wrote my dissertation on the subject, have a degree in economics with a specialization in finance, and am an avid reader of economic literature..... if you have any questions, feel free to ask and i will do my best to explain....

@Daelyn75 @parrot_of_adun hahahahaah ok so sorry to bring you guys back to arguing... i would just like to inform Daelyn75 that he/she does not know anything about economics or the FED ...in fact all of the "oppinions" that the FED is responsible for the economics woes of the united states have been concocted by, how did you put it, oh, right MSM (thats main stream media apparently folks), and entirely incompetant republicans such as Sarah Palin and the rest of her Tea Party.

i dont really understand this debate... if you want to see a comparison look at killzone 2 vs any other xbox game. ps3 has the potential to go well beyond xbox360, and it is only when ps3 makes an exclusive that title we all get to see this. when a game is limited by having to fit within the confines of the inferior 360 who cares if it doesnt look as good on the ps3? for the next graphics test i hope to see a comparison between exclusives. no offense to all you bill gates fans out there... but killzone killz the argument
