Become an Independent and think for yourselves.
Vote for election and finance reform. Vote for term limits to end the powerbrokering.

Stop being one of the herd or you will end up fleeced and on your way to the slaughter house with the rest of the sheep.

Is there any reason this person who is in an important position needs to be out there beating the drum of doom and gloom? Shut your D**n mouth. Be positive. There are a bunch of jello spined people in the market that get terrible diarrhea when the market passes gas. They should get their $ out, put it under their matresses and cry when the market comes back and they are out of it and have a nice tax write-off.

NEWS FLASH!!!!!

The entire Congress is to blame. Not just the Republicans.

Our entire government is riddled with the rot of GREED. Be it for power or money, or both, the place is a den of corruption and double dealing. We need to clear out the deadwood and slap a muzzle and hobbles on Wall Street.

No need to panic and jump out the window!

Calmly walk to the window, gaze pensively at the view, open the window, gently step out onto the ledge, close your eyes, and lean forward and glide to the street below.

Restructure our Lobbying Policies - Bring lobbying out into the open for debate.
Make lobbyists make their pitches and donations a matter of public record. Let%u2019s put a stop to the closed-door kickback and rewards system in place now. Violations of an ethical code of conduct should then be prosecuted vigorously and speedily.
Penalties - We should hold our leaders to a higher standard of behavior. The people we expect to lead our children into the future. We need to hold them accountable for their actions. If they are guilty of malfeasance in office, the penalties and fines should be so severe that the next person to entertain such ideas will at least hesitate before they try to manipulate matters of finance or state in an unethical or illegal manner.

We need to do this at all levels of government.
Election Finance Reform %u2013 Level the field so decent eligible candidates from all sectors can lay out a synopsis of their ideas and get equal time to present them at the start of elections. This will assure that the financially gifted or connected will not continue to monopolize the process.
Term Limits %u2013 Officers in Congress may no longer ensconce themselves in webs of power that have lasted for decades in some cases. It will form it%u2019s own check and balance system against the abuses that occur in our system now. Disrupt the good old boy system and insure a new influx of talent and ideas each election instead of doses of the S.O.S.
Codes and Guidelines for our Financial Sector - Create an oversight committee regulating and policing stock and futures trading and banking practices. This committee should also investigate policies which reward management failures with year end bonuses and/or separation packages worth millions of dollars.

Bernanke: "Inflation is killing us. The dollar isn''t worth squat anymore. So to fix that, I''ll print up a few trillion more of them, like I always do, and make them even more worthless. Then I''ll parade out in front of the media and complain how bad everything is, hope into my Gulfstream IV jet and zip off to Paris for dinner, and laugh my _ss off the whole way there. You people are SO stupid!"

The corn in the Chinese basket would have only cost you $2, giving you an extra $3.

This is how business is done today.

I work for AA Basket Company. making paper wrappers for McDonalds. I get paid on Friday and go to bank and deposit my check. My local MEGA store sales corn grown by China. I buy the corn that''s in a basket made in China (that should have been made at AA Basket) and pay the store $5.00 using my credit card. I take my corn home and write a check to the credit card company to pay some on my $5,000.00 balance. MEGA store makes $1.00 and gets the cash transfer from my credit card company then makes a payment on the $5,000,000.00 loan used to by the basket and corn from China. I don''t have any money in my pocket, China makes the $4.00 on the basket and corn and MEGA store will go broke if I can no longer buy the corn. Money no longer exist, only credit. This is bad.

For most of the past 200+ years this is how business in US has done.

I work for AA Basket Company. making baskets. I get paid on Friday and go to bank and cash my check. My local store sales corn grown by John. I buy the corn that''s in a basket (made by AA Basket) and pay the store $5.00 cash. The store has paid John $4.00 for the corn John pays the seed store $3.00 for the seed, the basket and other supplies to grow more corn. The store makes $1.00, John make $1.00, AA Basket make 25 cents and I get the corn I need and still have money in my pocket. This is good.

Very few want to hear truth any more, they''re too busy playing politics, thinking that will somehow solve the problem. And most don''t even know what the problem is!
I will suggest, again, however, to any who want to get a glimpse at the real problem, copy and paste the following link(in its entirety) into your browser and get a clue:

SO WHAT WE ARE SEEING IS THE DEATH OF THE OLD SYSTEM...THE AMERICAN DOMINATED SYSTEM OF BRETTON WOODS...AND THE BIRTH OF A NEW SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS ECONOMIES LIKE CHINA TO ASSUME IT''''S PLACE IN THE WORLD ECONOMY...
