In this dark and ominous time when we are being told our financial lively hoods hang in the balance, I thought it was time to lighten up a bit, so here it goes.

"Do you realize that the federal government in proposing a $700 billion dollar bail out? To put that into layman terms, that is about equivalent to one Euro."

"So you expect this Congressional Committee to just give you billions of dollars at the drop of a hat? Then again, you know what they say, hindsight is $2020 billion."

Woops, I suppose this is a debate forum and as such we need a debate. Ok then, so here is the question. Are end of the world jokes in bad taste or are they simply bad?

Speculations?😛

What's the difference between comedy and tragedy?

..............Time.

Though having said that can anyone remember any great jokes about the fall of 29? I cant remember any great routines about that crash.

Btw has anyone come up with any 911 jokes yet? There's a topic that will probably always be off limits for joking. I don't think there will ever be a good time, when you could tell a joke about that.

Blame Colbert, not me. As for more jokes, I am just waiting for the inspiration. Something tells me I will have some more shortly. 😀

How many Wall streeters does it take to change a light bulb?


It takes one to order the light bulb that does not exist as of yet, one to package the light bulb that is not in the box as of yet with the work order tucked snugly inside the box, and one to sell the light bulb with the work order in it to some poor shmuck so that they can go out and buy a light bulb that actually works!!

Did you hear the one about a group of Congressmen who could not even pass legislation to save their lives and that of their countrymen? If not I suggest you watch CNN for the punch line.

Three nations walk into the whitehouse, two African nations and America. The first african nation goes up to Bush and says,
"I'm afraid that due to our unstable economy, war, famine, and corrupt officials we seem to have run up a massive debt... Thousands of people are starving and dying of disease, is there any way you could let us off?"
Bush laughs in his face and tells him he should learn by his own mistakes.
The next African Nation walks up to Bush and asks the same question.
"I'm afriad due to our unstable economy, war, famine and corrupt officials we seem to have run up a massive debt... Thousands of people are starving and dying of disease, is there any way you could let us off?"
Again Bush laughs in his face and tells him he should learn by his own mistakes.
Then America walks up to Bush and says,
"Due to our unstable economy, some people might lose their jobs and some businesses might have to close due to them improperly selling mortgages. We need a huge wad of cash to bail ourselves out. Any chance of a handout?"
Bush says "Sure I'll go get my checkbook."
The african nations are shocked and go up to Bush and say "How come we had to learn by our own mistakes, but you just hand out cash to American businesses who knowingly perpetuated an unstable financial market for personnal gains"
Bush says "Isn't it obvious? - You guys don't get a chance to vote republican at the next election!"

Meh... ok... that was just off the top of my head though...
