I'm pissed too...

But also because I didn't think of writing this:

In every movie I've seen about the end of the world, civilization collapses because of something wicked cool happening - an asteroid hits, nuclear war, a supervirus, an ape revolution, whatever. If civilization collapses over credit default swaps I an going to be pissed.

And to think, based on recent movies, we've got a black president, which surely Hollywood has told me, denotes the coming of a doomsday asteroid. To think he just got elected to take the fall for a bunch of white guys who preceded him is really irritating, if not entirely unpredictable.
