WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THAT THEY ARE ALLOWING THE GOVERNMENT TO TREAT THEM LIKE THIS??????

 We need to tell them to go to h---. We are receiving less and paying more while the big shots on capital hill still live the lavish life.

 We, our children and our grandchildren are going to be paying for the rotten job our banks and Wall Streed did. Yet the management of the banks are still living the lavish life. Today, weeks after asking for a bailout, they are using chauffeured cars, private jets and getting bonuses. The bonus must be because they did a great job, that's why you and I get a bonus, right?

 I grew up in a time when ordinary people trusted the bank to make good judgments. You went to the bank for a loan and they told you if you could afford it. Some of the people that are in trouble did just what I said; they trusted the bank to know if they could afford the house they wanted. I know that others used their house as a piggy bank. Take every cent of equity out of their house for anything they wanted and now we are expected let them out of their loans.

 Some how we all need to stop the 1% of the population from running us into the ground.

The top management of companies need to get real with what they take out of the company in pay bonuses and perks!. Lets just say, if they took less and the workers made more, than the workers would have more to spend and the country wouldn't be in the mess it is. The top earners and the bottom earners are getting farther apart, not because the wagers are going down at the bottom. There is no Middle American anymore, only the top and the rest of us.

 I don't know how to change it but by God someone out there does! I hope it comes soon!
