Consequence is the evidence of our lives!

Its all about money! For once the political regime in this country has the opportunity to be the hero america needs by not only preserving what is left of our finances, but they can actually make us money and provided efficient, tactful, and pracitcal tools to finally, SERVE and PROTECT the american people (not the thought of what people think america is). The people who allow this country to thrive, and in turn make aristocrats lots of money are suffering because of greed. But why would someone who can pay their bills actually care. Politics are politics, money is money, and people are people. So when can the truth be the truth!

Bipartisan Defeat

I thought it was a bipartisan defeat of a bad bill. Gee, the market gained most of yesterday's loss today. Any policy based on the daily fluctuation of a stock market with a turnover of stock ownership of more than 200% is bad policy. And the "sky is falling" mantra from the White House is getting real old. The only leadership so far was from Sen. Obama asking the average citizen and investor to calm down, think clearly, and not panic. The flying into Denver metaphor he used was very appropriate, as anyone who has flown into there will tell you. Also, Congress was not designed for overnight reactions, nor should it be. Bad laws are almost always rushed to completion.
