Did your Congress person or Senator pay any attention to your request regarding ther bailout?  I think our founding fathers would be sobbing and rolling over in their graves if they could see what has become of their legacy.

Our government has been sold out to big business, the oil companies and Wall St..  This isn’t the country that our fathers and grandfathers, sons and daughters fought so diligently to protect.

It’s often said that if you don’t like your government, vote the bastards out of office.  The Democrats nor the Republicans heeded our shouts and pleas that they please not vote for the bailout.  The problem is, who can we vote for?

It’s against the law to take the country over by force.  With that said, how do we change our government?  Our only choice is of two, bad or worse.

How do we take back our government?  Your comments are welcome.

Eight years of unregulated and unmonitored Wall Street has led this country to the brink of total economic collapse.  Although I worry very much about our country leaning closer to socialism, the experts all agree that the action suggested last week by the President, Congress and the FED was necessary.

How did we get into this shape?  Very simply, greed.  The short sellers have no concern about what their actions did to this country’s economy.  The short sellers had everything to gain as the stock market fell in free-fall.  Gone unchecked, we would have lost our savings and our 401k’S as well as many other investments.

Your comments are always welcome.
