if you're tired of getting screwed, having your pension enronized or watching WS bet on your misery after they created the problem, then your a damn communist. see, a real american believes in predatory, unfettered capitalism-ya'll need the "buyers beware" label, because some irresponsible greedheads have convinced the suckers, oh, i mean some of the american people, that they don't need no stinkin regulations. and, if you do believe in regulating businesses, especially the banks, you're a damn communist.
