Take Bailouts, Give Nothing...

From Jim: I'm really starting to dislike the banking industry, the financial guys, and their Republican lackeys. They are destroying the housing industry and our economy. There's an hypocrisy that stinks to high heaven. The notion that bailed out businesses have anything to do with capitalism is silly. Big profit-big risk, Baloney. These guys are as socialist as it gets. Small government is not in their lexicon. Oh, no regulations and no legal consequences for horrible behavior suits them. But they are "too big to fail". May we all live to see the day when we try that out. I find oligarchy to be the worst of all forms of government. Greed is among the most despicable of human attributes. There is a corrosive and rotting effect to the unbridled behavior of greedy, immoral, dishonest people. Our government is chock full of them, bought and paid for by corporate interests. The big money folks have not factored in the demise of the republic. Their world doesn't require an America. The slouching slide into a third world society of haves and havenots is well upon us and, probably, it's too late to reverse. The Republican party, the party of "NO", the do nothing, insincere, sell outs, who put Stalin to shame with their "Big Lies" can own a bunch of the blame. The multi-national corporations, banks, and Wall Street can have the rest. Evil succeeds when good men do nothing. We've got plenty of evil, almost no good men in congress, and a polity that is schismatically divided and apathetic. We have failed the test of our founders' Great Experiment is self government. What a damn shame.
