I don't think you really understand the global economy. I will give you the Greek thing has been going on for months and it sounds very sketchy as an explanation for today's mess but to equate what is happening in Greece to LT is absent of any economic insight whatsoever. The Greek/EU thing is a BIG deal that could still have a major impact on the United States. If you don't think the US is a big player via the federal reserve/IMF in international finance (especailly in Europe)...
