When Congress passed that (illegal, Senate-originated) trillion-dollar bailout bill, the best I could do was give them the benefit of the doubt - hoping they did it because they knew something the rest of the country didn’t, and acted on that knowledge to save this country from ruin. (As Lincoln said, the Constitution is not a suicide pact.)
But (again giving them the benefit of the doubt) are they really saving this country from ruin? Or are they merely postponing the ruin?
They are setting us up for greater ruin, slightly postponed.
