This post is long due, and please forgive me as it might be a long post.

I was thinking today as I was out and about in town, and I was looking at how bad things have gotten here in America. Last year, downtown would be booming, this year not so much. Hundreds are jobless and still counting. Companies are going out of business right left and center. Yet what lead us here? I mean, sure we hear capitol hill giving heat to CEO's(who gave these politicians money for them to run on!) who they blame for the crash of America. We hear the consumers whining to the politicians and to the public, though they are the ones who made the CEOS rich in the first place!

Look at this way, we the consumers did not whine when we lived in hundred thousand dollar houses, we did not complain when we could get loans up to our ears! We only started to complain when the consumers could no longer live the rich lives they once did live. They started calling these CEO's who have become millionaires thanks to them, as greedy guts. They begged the Government to help bail them out, when they are the ones who gotten themselves in debt.

Why should our tax dollars help bail out these dumb people who knew they couldn't afford these loans? Why should the CEO's pay, when you are the ones who made them rich?

Here's food for thought, don't you think that once these companies started this bad business and you didn't buy into it at all, they would have had to change their policies if they wanted to stay in business? Then perhaps we wouldn't be in this place from the get go?

Enough said for one post!
