    [quote=SD Realtor]

    The problem is your presuming we actually have a say in what our tax dollars, our childrens tax dollars, and our grandchildrens tax dollars are spent on. Clearly they are not. In fact the first failed bailout was a joke and this recent bailout is not much more then a spending spree by our government. Explain to me how over 300 million in std prevention is a bailout?

    The bottom line is this will all be backstopped by the government.

    It doesn’t matter if our leaders are democrats or republicans.

    SD Realtor, we need to differentiate between bailout, stimulus and spending.

    I’m for letting the market self-correct.

    But how is a bailout of the irresponsible better then spending to help the people who were left out during the prosperous years?

    Isn’t stimulus all about getting the money flowing in the economy?

    You see, the problem is with people who actually save money.

    When homeowners – the indebted social elite – get in over their heads they have a negative net worth, while most renters (here anyway) saving to buy some day have a positive net worth.

    We can’t have lenders and borrowers both be insolvent or there will be no more horses to pull the carriage of economic expansion through slavery by debt.

    That’s why we have Obama. He will take from those us who save money and give it to those who abhor such frugal mindlessness.

    Not to mention line his advisors with a folks that consistently accidentally “forget” to pay taxes. Ok, the first one was funny. I’m not laughing anymore….Is this isn’t foreshadowing how corrupt and flamboyant this administration is gonna get, aka “these rules are for the rest of you but not for me”, I don’t know what is.
    How the hell does anyone make a $100k+ tax payment mistake????If there’s anything to be said, it’s that the difference between politicians and tax cheaters is that politicians get away with it.

    Anyone else get a sense some of the media is starting to get a clue?
