What Bush and Obama are really saying, "We've been focused on off-shoring every job overseas and wasting your money on unnecessary wars for the benefit of OUR constituents, not you, bailing out the bankers with your money so they can continue to rip you off. We really haven't had any time left over to worry about you "little people". So quit bothering us with your petty problems like unemployment, foreclosures and bankruptcy and send us more money."

I just hope we are not leaving to early and I hope it doesn't all falls apart over there. It would be horrible to have all these American solders and solders sacrifice so much only for it to be for nothing.

@IAmTheCthulhu When you go back to school this time, you're not going to be brainwashed again. They teach religious economy, not human resource and material resource operative economy. They may still persuade you your advancement are entirely base on how your company, like Apple for example, be traded in Wall St and how to keep quiet if your company Jewishly ripe off the customers., but not about how you can make your stuffs useful.

Be a real conservative/progressive to evolve our civilization. Look at the reality, the population, the available human effort and the material resource and then de-brainwash ourselves how abstract money should be as tool. Nobody should be superstitious that owning all money means owning all resource and all human efforts in this land. Beside of money, technologies can create more modern, sensitive and less painful tools. Why should we stuck by ancient tools, the money, hacked by Wall St?

[beancube2010]

The truth is about naive. Can anybody of the middle class really tell what's reality and what's abstract? People in a resource rich country like US shouldn't be panic easily about abstract or illusion. Why should the middle class, especially those baby boomers, be afraid of the world they created themselves? It is because they all know they have lied all through these establishments, not asking questions and not honest. They don't even know what they have been doing all their lives for. Wages?

I don't know who puts Bill White advertisement here!!! What's a wrong move!!! Now people can link Bill White to Obama!!!

[rumormater]

So 800 billions and other hundred billion bills are not really serious/urgent enough for Obama to rebuild the economy!! And now here again a second economy stimulus package is in the making. And if we don't do any thing this November, there will be a third economy stimulus package next year!!

the 400 billions Saudi Arabia gave it to the US as bail out, is just a pain killer, it will stop the recession for some years, but the US economy is screwed up and nothing can save it, the debt is larger than the whole GDP, our money just got wasted to keep the US a live for few more years.
