This is a no nonsense poll. Do you support the European bailout? Yes or No.

That is putting us between a rock and a hard place. No easy answer. Doing something and doing nothing, both have dire ramifications for us, and the rest of the world. The planet is burning, and noone knows what to do to put out the flames it seems. Keep your BOB nearby, it will come in handy soon.

For those of you who don't know, the "dollar tumbles" portion of that headline means --- all of us Americans who hold dollars are now poorer.

I wish more people would vote in this poll. I suspect that if 100 people voted, over 90 percent would still say NO. And yet, we're doing this. Odd, isn't it? When the overwhelming majority of a nation's citizens don't want a certain policy, yet that policy is enacted. Do the people control that said nation? Or does someone else?

1) Make bad bets on Europe.
2) Claim disaster if bailout doesn't happen.
3) Profit!

No, I really support the free market and I am against subsidies, bail outs, and our Marxist tax code.
