When times are good, financial institution hit
us with excessive interest rates, penalties, service
charges, poor service and indifference. Banks take your money
and then charge you a monthly fee when you fall under 1000 dollars.
I can give the wife all of my money and she wont charge me a cent.
When times are bad, the tax payer is expected to bail
out these money suckers and we are told that it is for
our own good.
The good old stock brokers always tell us about a good deal
just after it is no longer a good deal. When there is a hot new stock
offering that almost guarantees you double your money they can not get
you a single share. However, just prior to a muni being downgraded or a
company going into bankruptcy, they can get you all the shares you want.
Why is a boob of a CEO worth 100 million a year while the most efficient and effective
mid manager earn bupkus. Why does a top executive leave the company after 2 years
and receives 20 million dollars as a farewell gift while the rest of us are lucky to get a
watch after 40 years?
How come we grunts always seem to be living hand to mouth when times are good, while
doing even worse when times are bad. When do we ever get something from the horn of plenty?

unless of course you out smart the smarties.. which is the game of life.
It's about crooks and criminals hijacking our nation. It's high time we took it back from career politicians. We'd do much better with J6P serving 2 year terms.

I lean towards the pitchforks and torches approach with regards to the 3 branches in DC.
There is a reason that we have the second ammendment. Thomas Jefferson told us exactly what that was for.
Contrary to the current politcos, it's got nothing to do with hunting game.
2 years? Much, much too easy. Let them break big rocks into smaller ones and then give them some more big ones for 20 years or so.
