Literally, EVERYONE I know is so overwhelmed with surviving life in America,...
,...they have scarce time to participate in correcting economic and judicial and political ills. It's become THAT lopsided in terms of powers: the people have scant while the mongers have garnered so damn much!!!

I'll tell you what: if the abuses of the power-mongers finally impact what's left of the middle-class, THEN, change will happen. The corporacrats will not suffer until the overdue revolution occurs.

I am against a "bail-out" UNLESS every penny is funneled to middle/to/lower-class interests. Not one economy "expert" has convinced me that, funneling money from the bottom to float those who fucked up the economy will save this nation's financial anatomy. NOT ONE!!!!

Moreover, the last 8 years has been nothing other than an orgasm for the richest among us: no regulations of behavior, no taxes, care-free off-shoring to maximize profit profit profit. These people DO NOT NEED TO BE "SAVED",...they should be sunk,...they should GO DIRECTLY TO JAIL!

If there is to be a "bail-out", take it AWAY FROM THOSE WHO ABUSED THE ECONOMY OF THE U.S.A.!!!! Give it to those who can SAVE this country. Give it to THE PEOPLE!!!!

All that said, I come back to a fact: most Americans are so consumed in just SURVIVING life in this country, they have scarce to no time to try and FIX what the power-mongers fucked up. They certainly should NOT HAVE TO PAY for the greed of the corporacrats.

3. Existential terrorism is far more terrifying to those who have little else.
The ONLY terror those who hold the purse of the nation could experience is losing wealth.
