Bernanke: United States on Brink of Financial Disaster

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke made an interesting speech yesterday which got very little attention from the mainstream media. CNN reported a pretty sanitized version. The Times of India was a little more direct. But the EconomicPolicyJournal Blog and other sources cut to the chase and give many more direct quotes. Pretty scary when you read some of Ben`s assessments. Not that we haven't heard a lot of this before, it`s just that the Fed Chairman is now saying it :-)
