Bailout Outrage

arcora · 09-22-2008, 02:13 PM

Maybe it's a bit delayed, but I just calculated the cost of this trillion dollar bailout to 300 million Americans.

The cost per man/woman/child in this country is $3333.

That means my little family of four, who has to watch every nickel, is paying $13,332 to cover bad investments for a bunch of filthy rich bankers who get multi million dollar bonuses, live in big mansions and don't want for anything.

Why should my little family - who shops at discount stores and tries to find food on sale so we can make ends meet have to pay this? Who will send us $13,332 if we can't make our house payment or buy food? Certainly not the bankers.

This means my two little daughters who are 1 and 3 years old already have a tax bill of $6,666 before they've ever earned a dime. What have they ever done to deserve this besides being born in the USA?

If a regular citizen took $20 from me, he would be locked up in prison. These guys are stealing $3,333 from me, you and everyone else in this country and they're going to be called heros.

Jesse James used a gun - these guys use country club contacts and a pen.

I'm outraged.

Yes, I know.

But the immorality of this money being paid to cover bad investments for the super rich has me steamed.

Acora,

As I have said elsewhere, if these vile, criminal, traitorous scoundrels were given the Neuremburg treatment it would be way to gentle.
