NO MORE BAILOUTS....we have done too much already

by mary janie Wednesday, Oct. 01, 2008 at 5:43 PM

It is FEAR MONGERING, by exaggerations and catastrophic depictions.. propaganda...selling us the 2% incomers version of how bad it will be for us if they lose any of their profits, capital gains, benefits, compensations, and lobbist powers, and government chummists [the revolving door club]

How come no one asked our public opinion on what to do when the [mostly big guys] investors took their profits and capital gains for all these years?

why ask us now, and then find reasons why they are right to be bailed out [new euphemism being tried is "investment" in failing companies].

Nancy Pelosi [[thank you !!! ] finally spoke UP and said some valid things and then she is easily being blamed, a woman is also easier to attack by all the majority-male- 'investors'-lobbied by more of their own. No Fair !

NO MORE BAILOUTS....we have done too much already

let this financial scene fall apart to reassemble itself in a better paradigm - design - scheme that is less giving to the upper 2% of USA greedy populations and more to the 98% below those.

FEAR MONGERING, by exaggerations and catastrophic depictions...to scare the gullible every-person-pubic to obey and buy into another scheme... who will be going hungry ? how hungry is a better question?

who is going to die because they cant use their credit cards ?

who is going to live in their car because they bought a house they could not pay for or were gullibly sold a quickie with a low-initial and then high interest rate ?

Who teaches them how to buy wisely ? the bail-outers ?



who is going to say "you will lose your jobs" at every single sales pitch to intimidate those who have an [underpaid, 'service' or p.t. ] job, for a while ?

Or who is willing to do the work that some claim the "undocumented illegally entered USA" only can do. Who has become so fancy that they can't do 'ordinary' or dirt-garden-construction- waitressing work ? Who said we cant do low level factory work 'any more' ? why not ? how haughty have "we" become ? really ?

who is need to be rescued from their high expectations that dont meet reality any more.

Yes, the American Dream of moving UP UP and HIgher still has been a false one for a longer time than anyone wanted to admit.

But poverty ? Who has seen real poverty and yet many of those do not just 'suffer' but live it as well as those who think they own-the-world.

Who is saving whom from what ? What / where is self-discipline ?

What is sharing and being fair, any more ?

Who is acting Response-ability responsibily and not asking someone else to carry them because they say they "cant".

Who said they can't ? Can't Move UP ?

or Can't live on what they have, earn, share, barter, trade, work ?

Let's not all fall for the 'sales job', "snow job", fake threats and end-of=the-world-is-coming-IF YOU DONT DO WHAT WE SAY.....
