Folks,
It is extremely embarrassing to the world that in this Capitalism Capital of the world, the Government must bail out Capitalism.

America is proving to the world that Capitalism does not work by itself (i.e. without the government). America is proving to the world that Capitalism requires some degree of regulations to reduce if not eliminate getting GREED (cancer). Let''s admit that the temptations of Greed are strong in Capitalism.

"The government is imposing anarchy as the alternative to their imbecilic, self-serving agenda."

When your children (people economy) is out of control, a parent (government) must impose anarchy (strict rules) in the house (country).

I would rather have our Government Mothering me to death than the government allowing me to destroy my country to death.

It cheap to blame the government without 1st looking at your face in the mirror.

In Communism, the Dictator is responsible for the welfare of the people.

In Democracy, WE THE PEOPLE are responsible for our welfare.

Obviously, WE THE PEOPLE are doing a very poor job right now here in America.

By it own definition, Democratic implies independent minds, divisions, different ideas. It is these different ideas that keep Americans divided with no progress.

Divided we all Lose, United we all win.

Communism is extremely rich. See China, Vietnam and Russia.

Socialism is very rich. See Europe, Latin America and Asia.

Democracy is getting poorer. See only the USA.

WE THE PEOPLE are doing a very poor job of addressing our responsibilities as required by the principles of Democracy.

The government is imposing anarchy as the alternative to their imbecilic, self-serving agenda. The people have no voice at all, the laws are abused, the illegals are the "favorite" voting base, multiculturalism and open borders is the goal, and English is now an embarrassing form of communication? Freeloading is rewarded and corruption is a transparent activity without consequence. Fortunately, I am at an age where I can insulate myself and family from all this for a while. The future of America is bleak, the chaos and despair is only beginning. The few with all the power and wealth can''t begin to imagine what will happen when the entire system fails and their wealth means nothing and there is no one to have power over. There is little hope left as I see it. What a mess. And we have two of the greasiest candidates we have ever had running for POTUS.

Without Government Regulations, Capitalism will unknowingly destroy itself.

In Capitalism, the capitalist that risk everything eventually dangerously risks the nation into the toilet.

China, Vietnam and Russia are great examples where Capitalism is greatly flourishing under the strong control of a central government.

The Ideology of the NeoCons to keep the Government out is once again proving to be wrong and dangerous for Americans.

I sure hope this bill includes a big salary bonus for the executives at Fannie and Freddie. The ones who led those institutions to ruin. That''s a lot of responsibility for them.
