Thanks to political swing and pop-culture political campaigns, the planets are in alignment for spending bills to rain in Washington. Unfortunately, we're on the brink of economic chaos and many Americans are afraid of losing their jobs. We're in a situation where most households have to cut back on their spending; but Congress has now passed two bills, within a few months of eachother, that will require almost as much money as we've spent on the War on Terror, so far. Really, this is worse than the socialism that most American's fear... they just take our money, and give out multi-million dollar bonuses to executives that are already underworked and overpaid.

Hoping that feeding the banks' hunger for money will help get our economy back on track, Congress has just voted on an "economic stimulus" bill that we'll be paying off for the next few generations; promicing loans for home buyers and jobs for home builders, who are going to buy cars from car makers, and so on, and so on... Really, the loans will probably go to the businesses that usually need these loans to give you a paycheck.

The banks are having to eat our debt, and our credit driven society is falling apart. Looks like a good time for that "change" that Obama was promicing. Hopefully, when they're revising our public education system, they'll start teaching people not to spend money they don't actually have. But, then again, this is an administration whose Secretary of Treasury forgot to pay his taxes (an offense that could land anyone else in jail.. occationally, gunned-down in their home.).

This is already like elitist-socialism, where the majority of us are bought and sold based on a government enforced value. Most of us that are suffering don't have any time to make a change, and the people that can easily make a difference are too comfortable to care. We've become so complacent that we actually start to enjoy watching Paris Hilton and others spend the money that they aquire by means of which I would hardly call "earning".

We're suposed to be intelligent beings, but most of us jump like apes over the latest trends or crazes.We're going to have to do a lot more than change our healthcare system. We have become something that is self-destructive and unsistainable. We are unconsciously wasteful and selfish. If you try to address these issues, you're branded a liberal and laughed away with bullshit reasoning. The media that we feel we can trust to be our eyes and ears has become corrupt, and leads us like sheep to the wolf's den.
