Both local and national news outlets are asking "The bailout didn't keep the stock market from tanking. What now?"
Why do I have the sad, sinking feeling that the "what" is going to be the government robbing me at gunpoint to redistribute more of my hard-earned wealth to people who managed to become CEOs and CFOs without passing Econ-101?
Why do I have the suspicion that the "what" will include more socialist regulations, that already succeeded in crashing the market, whose goal is to utterly doom it?
If you aren't scared by the fact that Washington fucktards can pull a number like $700 BILLION out of their collective assholes, then take it out of YOUR pockets, and shovel it around to a bunch of Wall Street whores, then ask "Why didn't that work?", you aren't paying attention!
There are only two types of people who voted for the "bail out". One is the Republican fat cat with friends on Wall Street. The other is scared and guilt-ridden Democrats with friends on Wall Street. The ones who voted for this bill voted against their constituency, and I predict that there will be significant fallout. Sure, these weasels might see increased donations from a *cough* certain sector, but come lever-pulling-day, they will have to explain why they threw away a metric-fuckton of taxpayer money and the economy is still a stinking pile of crap. |
