kitchen Angst!

I feel if I don’t say something I can’t bitch when it goes to shit! I have always believed what my mother told me when I turned old enough to vote and she took me to sign up. “If you don’t vote, you can’t bitch! Well I do vote, so I’m going to bitch today!!!!
We are talking about 700 BILLION DOLLARS here! If you listen to Washington…We have to bailout these company’s(that caused the problem in the first place) to ensure our future as a country! If, on the other hand you listen to the experts on CNN(or any other News channel for that matter) you will hear quite the opposite! Yes it will hurt, yes a lot of people may suffer, but it will not destroy us as a nation! The “bailout” however just might! It may not work at all. These company’s were involved in shoddy business practices at best! They knew the risk’s involved in giving out these BAD LOANS, and did it anyway. Now We The People are going to come to their rescue? BITE ME!!! I saw this coming several months ago at least! As soon as all the new fangled loans started showing up in TV adds. I saw a lot of hard working people getting hurt just for trying to better their lives(buy a home). I do feel sorry for anyone that fell victim to this underhanded scheme. However I don’t feel responsible for bailing them (or the company’s that pulled it off) out! If I go to Los Vegas and walk up to a craps table, put a $50,000 chip on a square and loose! It’s no one else’s fault but my own! I can’t look at the guy next to me and say “I didn’t understand” now you pay it for me please! Most of the loans we are talking about were nothing more than that. You can’t spend more than you can pay!!! It’s all in the fine print, You have to be an informed consumer.
With that being said the Banks f-cked up as well by giving out so many of these loans to pad their own wallets. Greed got them into this mess… Now their greed is asking me to pay for it! I am SICK OF THIS BULLSHIT!
Like I said earlier, I saw this coming and started to plan my exit of this country(for awhile at least). Bush has destroyed our economy, reputation in the world, and standard of life. as Americans! Neither of the two running for the office now have shown me any positive hopes for the future! and I just want to get out before this place implodes! Now my plan of escape has fallen apart and I am stuck to fight my way out! I will do that with my every breath!! I will not die in this country without saying how I feel, I am a proud American… but I am not proud of how we have behaved lately as a country!!
I urge all Americans to get on their phones, computers, or grab a F-cking pen and let those in Washington know how you feel! And get out and vote!!! Just make sure you are well informed on the issues, and where each candidate stands! We The People need to TAKE BACK OUR GREAT COUNTRY!
