That's a great question and I look forward to the answer(s).

The common man is always somebody else, too.

Obama wants to make everyone as equal as possible from a wealth standpoint. He thinks he can do this without destroying the current system. The problem is he is completely misguided. What unemployment rate do we have to see to wake people up?

The history of the world suggests socialist and communist platforms are unsuccessful. Why should we follow a path of proven failure?

Bush ruined everything and that allowed his friend to come in and nationalize everything!
This is the big scheme that the big wigs wanted. How else could Obama just taken over big business? Wow they really pulled the wool over our eyes.
Bush and Obama working together,Who would have thought!
Is Obama part of that Skull and Bones thing? Can blacks be in that group?

I'm not concerned at all about Tarp. I'm concerned about the massive, outrageous budget pushed through. If interest rates go up, we have to roll over ALOT of Tbills which will cost this country a fortune.
