The stock market has been plummeting.  So this is how Bush’s policy of deregulation and unbridled corporate greed is supposed to have a trickle down effect? I would say for most of us it an avalanche.

Huge export imbalance, banks being bailed out by foreign money barons, Meaningful jobs lost, fewer things being manufactured in the US.

This all spells trouble for the US economy and the middle class.  Washington has failed to do anything about it for fear of upsetting the large corporate interests.  Large corporate interests who could give a damn about most of us hard working people who are now just trying to survive.  Trying to survive while the oil companies, the large, multi-national corporations and Washington lobbyists get rich.

What can we do about it? Your comments are welcome.
