		<description>We should allow those companies and institutions that WILL fail TO fail.  It is patently obvious that the billions thrown into the air are disappearing and NOT providing ANY kind of an &quot;umbrella&quot; effect for anyone or anything.  I just visited by tax preparer yesterday and was told flat out: I don&#039;t qualify for damned near anything.  Apparently, everyone ELSE does.

Just wait until April 14th of 2010.  You, me, WE are going to get hit straight between the eyes.

		<description>Ingrid, I believe there are a lot  of intelligent, honest persons out there who love this country and would be willing  to run for public office if it didn&#039;t cost two arms and two legs to do it.   The rich, or the ones who are connected with the rich, are the only ones who can afford to campaign.  Perhaps we should be like Canada.  

A friend who lives there wrote, &quot;I can&#039;t believe how long your election campaign goes on... our 3 weeks were sickening enough ... and our politicians are restricted to one million dollars each...to campaign and no more..no more huge support from large companies etc...our present prime minister cut that off a couple years ago.. so makes the playing field much more level.&quot;

Good idea or not?  If so, how can we get the goons in DC to pass legislation to make it so?</description>

		<description>This only proves my contention that any fool that would vote for Obama either wanted a socialist state, or had no idea what the hell was going on!</description>

		<description>Carl, so many people believe the stock market doesn&#039;t affect them until you remind them of their 401k&#039;s, IRA&#039;s, and pensions.  Just about every factory in America that offers a pension gets the money for these pensions out of investments in the stock market.  When peoples life savings and retirements tank, they are mostly going to go on welfare and become wards of the State.  When this happens, they&#039;ll vote Democrat to ensure they get their welfare check, thus ensuring Democrats stay in power for a long time.  Democrats, and some Republicans, don&#039;t care if people prosper, all they care about is getting their vote.</description>

		<description>Well, I too am astounded by the unemployment rate.
Especially since I am still unemployed.
And the Porkulus Bill isn&#039;t going to help me one bit.
As far as the stock market, I heard someone the other day say how it doesn&#039;t affect them because they don&#039;t own stock.
I asked them if they had a 401k and what kind of shape that was in.
Then the light bulb over their head went on.
I then asked the guy who he voted for.
Guess who?
Too stupid to realize that the stock market tanking tanked his retirement savings, and yet he is allowed to vote!!!
My wife works at a bank.
There isn&#039;t a day that goes by that she doesn&#039;t get questioned by a nervous depositer if the bank is secure.

I think that before too long even left-wing loonies will start to understand that this is the kind of change they had hoped for.</description>

		<description>Go Ingrid!

The Obama camp and the rest of our so called leadership doesn&#039;t get it.  They are flailing about throwing our money at everything hoping they can hit the monster.   

There are real solutions out there.  Hope someone gets a clue fast or stops long enough to let the people deal with it.  As long as he keeps dealing with the problem by cheapening our country things are going to continue to spiral down.</description>

		<description>As I&#039;ve said before Fred.....in a democracy they must beat you down to the ground first and then they can say we will help you back up.  This is exactly what is happening now.

I wrote a letter to our Northern Texas Senators and congress people in 2007 asking them why the FDIC isn&#039;t questioning BofA, Wamu, and some other banks who were dishing out bank cards, loans and credit cards to ILLIGALS.  I went on the FDIC web site and not to my surprise they stated that they only check on the banks every 2 years if they feel they have to because they are OVER PAID AND UNDERSTAFFED (I just added that).  They were supposed to have taped and written documents on every banks monthly board meeting...they didn&#039;t.  They where supposed to thoroughly check their books every month or so…they didn’t.  When I read that they would only investigate a bank if they felt the need to is beyond my comprehension.  It again tells me that our federal government is a joke.  And, yes we should seriously consider Sovereignty and then secession.

For me the FDIC stands for Flagrant-Deceptive-Idiotic-Council.
Why do we have a failing economy?  Because we have a failing federal government that makes no effort to ensure all of it&#039;s department wings (FDIC, FDA, USAD, IRS(private company), INS, ICE, HS, ETC  are all working and functioning according to our Constitution and Laws.

Can anyone wonder or perhaps think that maybe this country is to big to be run and governed by a few rich elite who don&#039;t give a damn about this country.

They are doing exactly what FDR did.  It didn&#039;t work then and it won&#039;t work now.  All these stimulus&#039;s are doing is paying back the rich elite and paying salaries for all the dumb federal employees who really don&#039;t know much except how to shuffle the paper work from one office to another. And there in lies the problem  to much needless paper work  and no accountability by any of them.
WAKE UP!!!!! oH!</description>
