"The first thing that would make me feel a little bit better towards them, if they'd follow the Japanese model and come before the American people and take that deep bow and say I'm sorry, and then either do one of two things -- resign, or go commit suicide."
-- Sen. Charles Grassley, on AIG execs

Considering his preference for men your statement is really funny. You hit it right on the head. Yet he is not the only one that is the cause of all this mayhem and destruction. All these people have to be taken out regardless of party affiliation. We need to band together and get past this crisis. Chris Gardner who had the  movie made about his life called " Pursuit of Happiness" made a very interesting statement the other night on Glenn Beck. He said that he was working with economist and other organizations to see what would happen instead of giving all this Stimulus Money out if the Government gave every American who votes, over 18, American citizen  1 million dollars.  The study is not over. But this guy is a good example of you can make it if you try and believe in yourself. He has done much since his success and should be proud of himself.

Could a concept like that work? I don't know given all that is in that package but is sure as heck would start Stimulus and if people were not total ja's about the money, many could get their lifes in order or back to order. The rest of the money in the package, could then be used for what it was or should be designed to do, built the infrastructure, create jobs and get the country back on track. I do not like that the Banks are being owned by the Government. Maybe if something like that would or could happen, it would put the banks in a situation that they would want to help us rather than screw us the way they did with giving out loans to people who could not or should not have gotten them. A pipe dream I don't know but it sure as heck is better than funding unneccessay Pork items. And the good part is that you would not have to pay the Government back.  What do you think?

I am going to post a great letter sent to me by a friend about the Big 3 Auto Makers in Motown. I give the guy alot of credit and his points are quite valid. I am not against unions but I believe the time has long past for their necessity. I realize there is bad management, but there is also bad unions. Why do you think the auto industry, aviation industry hell most of them are on the balls of the axx it is because of the demands of the unions. Some of the biggest idiots are Union Shop Stewards and once retired you would die if you knew what they make a year for a pension. You all know where that comes from the dues people paid all the years to their unions. Some of these guys who's IQ is maybe 60 are receiving 70-8- grand a year for pensions. That is absolutely insane. And people are still getting laid off even with the companies with unions in place. What is the answer there? Another question to think about.

Anyone who believes that government can take care of them and solve their problems is at the very least seriously misinformed and at worst a complete fool.  Most are likely in the first group having been educated in the govermment operated public school system which no longer teaches the true history of governments.
