39 and Holding

I cannot help but be amused at the stupidity exhibited by the Wall Street financial wonders.  These folks have looked down their Puritanical collective noses at we commoners, but have now got their hands firmly caught in the fiscal cookie jar.

Our feds have taken the same collective fiscal stupidity as the guys who are expecting the government to bail them out.  

I for one would like us to cut our losses and let the chips fall where the may, instead of using trillions of taxpayer dollars to end these idiots plight.

The analogy I use is that if a mom and pop business fails through bad management they lose the business and have to somehow start anew. The feds are not going to send them copious amounts of cash to “FIX” their errors.

As a 83 year old tax paying voter I hereby “DEMAND” that the folks I helped put into congressional and legislative offices renounce these cries of anguish and tell these folks to get on with their life, get a job and be glad they were not strung up to the nearest tree for lying to their shareholders.

This country will survive a depression, I know that to be the truth as I lived through the last one.

Boy you said it, let them get their arshes out of this mess, I don’t think it’ll happen we will bail them out because government is not ready to deal with the ramifications of their Greed. What most Americans don’t understand we will as a country melt down this is inevitable the buy out is just postponement.

I could not agree with you more.
I know the presidential election is important, but we need to clean out the old Congress and Senate and get some in who could actually help our country. They are living off of us.
I wonder when "We the People" are going to make a change. It can't be any worse than what the "old" Congress are doing.
Oh, don't take that ("old") the wrong way. I'm old my self. LOL!
