Many people are rightfully upset about the street "flash mobs" that organize to rob, beat and steal. And they are right to be upset. I am waiting for the day that somebody pulls out a firearm and takes the garbage out to the bin. Hopefully that will happen soon.
But of more worry to me is the big government big business "flash mob" that is robbing all of us and looting the country. If you look at that, that is what really should scare you. Big business such as AIG, ADM, Bank of America, GM, AT&T and others marching into our halls of government with armies of lobbyist and bags of cash and demanding taxpayer funded bail outs, government subsidies and the end of any semblance of anti trust laws. And the government bowing to their every wish and desire. The real flash mobs are on Wall Street.

No, they are in Washington DC. Big business cannot do anything that Big Government does not allow. Big Government makes the rules.

And yes, the Obama "Flash Mob" bailed out GM with your money. So you should be quite upset.

You mean like the flash mob that loots a third of my paycheck before I even get it?

I am quite upset. Damn upset. Obama is as much a mobster as the flash mobs in Philly are. He just uses a pen to loot.

Yes that flash mob. You think they are screwing you, you don't even want to think what plans they have for your kids.
