U.S. Government "Bails Out" Wall Street, Others: Yet Another reason this stinks!

This week, we've seen several Wall Street firms plummet, then quickly rescued (among other entities). What do these bail outs of firms say to the average U.S. Citizen? In my opinion, they say "screw you".

Why? Despite the nation reeling in economic crisis, with millions losing their homes each month, it took MONTHS for Congress to even debate assistance to homeowners. Yet, the government agreed within DAYS to step in and help Wall Street companies.

That says it all: If there was ever a time when a government has shown more cruel, almost sociopathic indifference toward its own citizenry, it is NOW. (Note: With the exception of post-Katrina New Orleans.)

Disagree with me? Oh, but why? Let's argue about it. Post me.
