As Marie Antonette said, “if the don’t have bread, let them eat cake!” A statement she appoligized for, as the people led her to the chopping block.

This is insane! I have never see such a blatant disregard for the American public as we are witnessing now. History will record this as one of biggest mistakes of 2010 Congress generating millions of foreclosures, repossessions and forcing citizens to be homeless and in soup lines. The economy will turn back down into the crapper. Congress is Destroying America and all we can do is watch.
Next year Mexico and Canada may have a problem keeping illegal Americans from flooding their country.

I say we vote out ALL incumbents and start with a fresh new batch of them that hopefully are not rich and despiteful of the American Public.
God help us all.

The reason they bailed out the “corporate greed” is because they are all shareholders and receive DIVIDENDS from those “greedy corporations”. I’ve always said 401K’s was nothing but a gimmick to get funding for greedy corporations. When they close, merge, sellout, or whatever, you end up getting a 10% penalty to use your own money if you do not roll it over into another 401K account! Go figure!

We are in between a rock and a hard place, penalized for using own money, and then penalized for being out of work. Funny thing is, you get neither a 401K, nor a unemployment check WITHOUT first working to earn the right to both of them should the need arise!!!

NO MORE EXCUSES – EXTEND THE UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS. I Can”t look for work
anymore – unless I apply to a doctor. Which I have no experience at: I want
to work – but there is nothing…………………. I can’t more because I help
care for my 80 year old parents.
