The bleeding is never going to stop if these<br />rates continue to go on at this high level. The current President has had several years to bring the unemployment rate<br />down but only to suffer defeat. Saying the economy would be worse of if the Feds did not by back U.S. Notes is only an <br />admission of defeat.Wayne G.

Right now large press doesn't seem to be covering anything about this. One of the ideas to get their attention is going to eventually stick.

I wish we could do something now to really impact the situation, to get their butts moving. I wish we could all band together and make one heck of an impact so that they would have to do something today, now, this very moment.Accounting Assistantnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798560660952373450.post-65820521119016532022010-05-06T10:26:15.857-04:002010-05-06T10:26:15.857-04:00Anger? Anger? This is not about "anger",...<b>Anger? Anger?</b> This is not about "anger", it's about <b>desperation!</b> <i>Sheer, creeping, terrible, quiet <b>(or NOT so quiet)</b> desperation </i>. <br /><br />Desperation is a lot different than just being po'd about missing concert tickets. <br /><br />Desperation is about having to pack up all of your belongs--precious baby blankets and photos and kid's birthday cards from 25 years ago--and haul them to a storage unit because you've just gotten evicted from your home.<br /><br />Desperation is wondering how many months you can possibly afford to maintain that crappy little storage unit for which you've scrapped together the $50 for one month's rental. All of your memories, all your precious bits of life in a dank 10 X 25 storage unit that somebody else is probably going to dig through with greedy, uncaring hands to auction off when you can't pay for the unit anymore. <br /><br />Desperation is about wheeling your grocery cart through the store and putting back five of the eight items your family really, really needs just to get them through another few days at best, because your wallet is all but empty. <br /><br />Desperation is about broken teeth and dental work needed which you and your kids can't afford, because you're looking at the dental bills stacked up on the counter already.<br /><br />Desperation is about listening to your old car's death rattle, being too afraid to take it on the expressway, biting your lip as you watch the gas gauge hover on "E" as it perpetually does anymore, and wondering if you'll even have enough gas to get you back home.<br /><br />Desperation is about watching your life insurance which you've carried all your working life lapse, and wondering how in the heck your kids are going to even bury you now. <br /><br /><b><i>ANGER?!!</i></b> OHHHH, man, Congress, you ain't seen nothin' yet. <br /><br />WE WILL REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER.Linda From Ohionoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798560660952373450.post-60825000758416862952010-05-06T08:43:50.362-04:002010-05-06T08:43:50.362-04:00Yeah!
