The Great American Firesale

So here we are in the aftermath of the political posturing and posing that has captured the imaginations of children and comedians across the face of the planet. Who else would have the tolerance for the "Bailout" of 2008 which is being compared to the "New Deal" of the "Depression" era? New deal, old deal. It is the same old game, folks. The politicians have found yet, another way to line the pockets of the "haves" from the pockets of the "have nots." Ah, but don't complain for they are our elected officials. Those who have been chosen to guard the palace gates at all expense and they certainly have. So now you have a new fairytale to pass on to your grandchildren whilst you are tucking them into bed. Remember when you look in the mirror that we are the problem and we can solve the problem. All we have to do is take responsibility for our "leaders." Oh and by the way, remind them that it says, "For the people, by the people", not "For the king, by the king."
