Does he want to embrace chaos because his life is pretty boring? Maybe he thinks that the American population haven't reached their potential and need an adrenaline rush of some kind to get their act together?<br /><br />Is Mr Sloan endangering the world by his lack of good ideas? Or is he panicking because he doesn't know what's going on?<br /><br />If we have too much of a crisis, I fear it will make messes of almost everyone.Myrtle Blackwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07427043367624101075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4900303239154048192.post-53371397317612375752013-05-25T08:39:25.339-04:002013-05-25T08:39:25.339-04:00One silver lining to a new financial crisis might ...One silver lining to a new financial crisis might be a Warren Commission -- Elizabeth Warren, that is. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
