A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.–George Bernard Shaw
People made poor financial decisions and someone else (us) gets to pick up the bill? I’ve been living through this with the San Diego City Council for years and now I have to pick up the tab for people who couldn’t read a lending agreement or the escrow papers they signed? Or they could but counted on an appreciating market that didn’t happen?
Gee, maybe next the government will bail out some of the losses I’ve had in the stock market since it wasn’t really my fault that I lost that money.
I guess the phrase “Personal Responsibility” is becoming an oxymoron.
One more quote:
A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellow man ….a debt he proposes to pay off with your money.
-G. Gordon Liddy
