$700 Billion…How Many Zeros Is That?

Should Have Made It a Cool Trillion

It’s kind of funny how members of Congress and the President give the impression via the media that they did something spectacular and historic in stopping the country from collapsing financially.

Aren’t they supposed to do these things before we are on the brink of another depression and before Wall St. CEOs bail with millions of dollars and new mansions?

Should we be impressed?

It’s kind of disappointing actually to think that they seem to believe that all Americans are stupid and don’t see what’s going on.  What’s going on is a very sophisticated game of shuffling our money around so that a very select group of people can profit from it big time.

Now, all the politicians want to jump up and down like they saved the world when they really only delayed the inevitable.  This financial market meltdown is like a giant tsunami.  It can’t be stopped with a quick fix money wall.  It’s not going to work.

By the time it collapses, and eventually self-corrects, former President Bush will be in Texas trying to gather millions of dollars for a library or something.  This is how the game is played–over and over.

Americans are somewhat tired of the game and that’s why John McCain and Sarah “Send a Shout Out” Palin should not get into the White House.  They represent the same game.
