Grand Theft America Continues
Thank you! say all the bailed-out companies! Thank you for giving us all your money for two generations.
And then they take the money we didn't want to give them in hopes that it'll revive the economy, and more, and more. From you. From me. And yet the economy continues to die. So we throw more, like throwing one virgin into a volcano after another, hoping to placate the gods and stop an eruption.
But you know what they do?
They just take the money offshore and keep it, and let their companies and our economy continue to die.
And we keep giving them money. This may be a moot question, but: how stupid are we?
Before Bush we had a massive surplus, and he and his friends have spent the last eight years stealing it from us. Several times over.
We had the means to avoid this but we let it happen, and happen, and keep happening.
If America dies, we deserve it for being so fucking stupid.
