...fastest-growing large economy, passing China for the honor.

One thing that hasn't kept pace though is Indians' use of toilets.  Almost half the population, 620 million people, still shit in the streets.

The next time your tech support call gets routed to India, ask the dude if he shits in public or if he's housebroken.

The situation has gotten so bad that UNICEF has started a campaign to..

.......from India. He would leave a nasty mess in the restroom stalls. The janitors tired of cleaning up the mess finally tracked him down and found out he was standing on the toilet seat and allowing Nature to fall wherever. Just an FYI, squatting while taking a dump can cause hemorrhoids.

have successfully "engineered" our culture to 'wipe and smear' repeatedly rather than swiftly rinse clean and dab dry using a tiny fraction of the usual amount of "tissue" used.  

I think "Globalization" holds sociopolitical/socioeconomic/cultural challenges that will cause consternation on many levels other than simply carnal liberality.

It's been in the news for quite some time. LOL

My concern isn't that Greece will fail, it's that Greece will be the first of many to fail.

I am afraid Italy and Spain are warming up in the bullpen.

Thought I was going to mention you?  

God Bless U.S. Corporations. You may want your lady friend to lightly dab her asshole, but if I'm just in the neighborhood of a ladies asshole, I want the chick to bring out the heavy artillery. Start with a big ass bar of Dove Soap (Unilever), if necessary throw some Comet (Proctor & Gamble), how about some AJAX (Colgate Palmolive), maybe some Formula 409 (Clorox), stick a rose in it (Scott's Miracle Grow), and top it of with some fine Cartier perfume.  

Dab my ass!

It may last a day, a few days, maybe a week. Actually I have no idea. But sometimes with fear and uncertainty comes opportunity. The pre-markets are showing a big hit tomorrow, but I don't plan on selling. I'm actually pretty upbeat on the U.S. economy

In fact, I may buy some Nike and Proctor and Gamble tomorrow. Tennis shoes and deodorant. Bernie Sanders said on a CNBC interview that Americans have too many choices in life, and he mentioned tennis shoes and deodorant. Sounds like Bernie has a penchant for a centralized planned economy. If Bernie was elected, I'd sell everything in a nanosecond.  

P.S. BP - sorry for hijacking your thread on the Indian economy, and 620 million Indians shitting in the streets. Hopefully some of them are a bit more discreet than that. Let's blame it on the British for not toilet training the masses.

Or you can simply keep some dry powder and see which babies get thrown out with the bathwater.

Either way, with volatility comes opportunity, it should be a fun few days, unless of course you are a buy and hold investor like our own Mr God Bless Bank of Americ
