3. I'm Not Laughing Because They are Getting Exactly ...
what they want, I'm afraid. This is the biggest theft of the American tax payers ever.... and you know what else... it's gonna get very ugly in America. This move by the fed may have helped the market, but it's gonna piss of Americans like the wealthy have never seen before.

4. You have to laugh.
Otherwise you'll cry. So laugh! And at least get some enjoyment out of their temporary disgracefulness!

What's the matter AIG? Lehman Brothers? Bear Stearns?

You buncha gutless, slimey welfare queens suckling at the federal government's teat?!?

That's not "rugged individualism" you punch of pussywillows!!

Lord, you're all pathetic. We The People, should just let you whither and die. Hey, that's capitalism, right?!

8. This is starting to become just me ranting to myself and one other person.
But oh well! I'm having fun.

You pathetic turds. This is capitalism. It doesn't look like you're going to make it. You shouldn't get another transfusion of dollars! You should get arsenic pumped into your heart. That is *SUPPOSED* to be the American Way. Some make it, some don't. RIP, you weak, weak corporate toads.

14. To hell with those rotten bastards!
What did they think was going to happen? They've bled this country dry by outsourcing jobs and capital, never knowing or caring where the people would get the money to pay their bills. Pretty shortsighted, wasn't it you slimebags? Where did you think you were getting -your- operating budget from, huh? So now the chickens have come home to roost, and you beg the taxpayers for bail-outs, the very SAME taxpayers you've been SCREWING for so many years!! The fucking GALL of these bastards!

15. American prophets...
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered." - Thomas Jefferson

"All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise not from defects in their Constitution or Confederation, nor from want of honor or virtue, so much as downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit, and circulation." - John Adams
