It's Just Money!!

The most important thing to remember here is that the common man will continue to get raped and the rich will continue to get rich. The plan is to have the taxpayer pickup the huge losses generated by the poor decisions of the rich and let the rich continue raping the poor man.

The common man will still lose his home. The government will pay off the home, so the rich does not lose, and sell it at auction to some rich investor who will then put it on section 8 and collect more government money. So the only loser in this bailout is still the taxpayer.

I still say let the government pay three months mortgage payment for all citizens. This will put the banks even with where they should be and infuse cash back into the economy while at the same time giving the common man a chance to keep his home. If we are going to start screwing each other then I want my turn too.

But you do bring up a couple of great points...I don't think that the three months mortgage pay out would work though...hell it makes too much sense. I also would be willing to bet that this has got many other economic issues attached to it as well. It started because of the Sub Prime loans but it didn't stop there, we literally are in debt to our eyeballs and we owe China and Japan tons of money, it's scary just how badly off we are currently. They need money for Mortgages and for STUPID risky behavior that no common American would get themselves involved in and yet they are still asking for their handout! They really are a shameless bunch!

when you said that to her? Did she get it, or just stare through you? And, just asking, but how did you feel after you said that to her? I don't think I could have said it.

Reviews of Everything, reviews and opinions of, well, almost anything!

Vicious to your friend - not you. And this comment will still sound pretty damned harsh.

I'm sure it is hard for someone who has collected welfare as a career to understand how people who have worked hard all their lives and saved and invested so that they could have a comfortable and safe retirement are now panicked when faced with their savings and investments being wiped out. When they are faced with the possibility of having to live on the streets and eat out of soup kitchens in their senior years instead of in their own homes or in well-run nursing homes.

People who rely on welfare as a career don't think about the future, don't think about what they will do when they don't have the money for expensive dental procedures that will allow them to continue chewing their food, don't think about what they will do when they are too sick and old to drag themselves to work and can't pay their electric or gas or grocery bills, even if they have managed to pay off the mortgages on their homes after 50 years of working for a living.

Someone who has lived off welfare and doesn't seem to mind letting the government pay for everything will not understand how difficult it will be for a person who has paid their own way all their life to live off Social Secutiry and a government medical program that will do nothing but pay a doctor to watch them while they suffer - cause it sure as hell won't pay a doctor to fix anything or apply any medical technique more costly than the application of a band-aid.

The closest a career-welfare recipient has come to buying into the American dream of a better life is to enjoy sitting on the couch watching day-time soaps and eating nachos made with government cheese. They don't have the slightest idea how good life can be with your own home, your own little patch of garden, healthy food and productive activities to fill your day.

Aw hell, I could spout for hours about this and give details that would bore even me. I know too damned many career-welfare idiots - half of my own family. And nothing you say will ever get through to them.

When the welfare check they get doesn't cover the cost of their heating bill, when their food stamps no longer buy enough mac & cheese to fill everyone's stomach, they will blame the government and still sit on their fucking couches and starve while watching Jerry Springer and blame everyone but themselves.

times alright and it all seems to happen at once. I don't think Western economies are going to come out of it unscathed. It's the rolller-coaster ride of capitalism.

Is this thing has been building for years. As soon as gas prices doubled then it set a domino effect in motion. EVERYTHING from fertilizer. a pair of jeans, to a lemon are affected by high oil prices. It means transporting those items is higher, it means storing those items is higher, it means producing those items cost more. So, people cut back. They travel less, they make fewer trips to the store, they buy cheaper brands and eventually, this trickles down to the manufacturer who lays off employees because he isn't getting the orders. Those employees can make it for a little while but then they falter on their loans and they lose their house. The cycle grows bigger with each new rise of the price of oil.

George Bush has had a "hands off" policy when it came to big business. He has let the oil companies, pharmaceutical companies, and insurance companies rape this country. What he has interfered with is our freedoms. He has literally pulled the rug out from under us.

What I can't understand is why Any blue collar worker would vote Republican at all. Isn't a blue collar Republican an oxymoron? If not an oxymoron, just a moron because the Republicans don't look out for these guys, they look out for the 1% good buddies of theirs.
