NO.
See, most of the general public is missing the point (being purposely misled, uninformed)
The BIG INVESTORS saw the scam starting to fall apart.
They had the government and media spread news of a PANIC and then arranged this hasty BAILOUT (for themselves)
Now, the media/government is revealing a major portion of the SCAM (Madoff... but there are more to come), and the investors who don't have as much PULL have gotten screwed.
And you and I made sure (through no choice of our own) these TOP INSIDERS/GOVT OFFICIALS got their money back.
Now you know why the FEDS won't tell anyone where the $700 Billion went.(they don't want the villagers marching to their castles with torches)
That's perfect!
The Banking Queen hates racks.
the solution is to stimulate production, not pile more debt on the taxpayer.
sadly it wont happen
politicians are like shopping addicted housewives with a stack of credit cards
the solution is so simple
massive tax breaks for manufacture of goods within the USA
massive tax breaks for buyers of homes
massive tax breaks for each job created
priority given to economic survival first and foremost over environmentalism
government spending strictly within budget, X dollars to spend from taxes collected, X dollars spent ....period
NO trillions of dollars in bailouts,
no trillions of dollars in pork barrel stimulus
these "solutions" are like bailing out the ocean with a bucket
I know this by experience, I went from a bankruptcy caused entirely 100% by a spending addict ex wife ( not by me) to an almost 800 credit score in 10 years
I simply lived within my income, borrowed conservatively, and paid off my loans
Our entire government should be fired and replaced with people who have real world experience instead of the weakling silver spoon spending addict gangsters who are in office from coast to coast from the top to the bottom, from the president on down to the DMV director
“The idea of enforcing existing regulations...”
They’re sold out of existing regs...time to make new ones to shake down the suckers...
ping for later reading
Isn't there a special prosecutor investigating any of this?
