Bailout.

So what's the big deal here? So the House of Rep. voted against a bill that's going to bail out millionaires? I'm not a millionaire, are you? Secretary Paulson wants to take 700 billions dollars from OUR pockets and tax dollars and place them in the hands of millionaires who have already fucked up their own money. Hmmm.... Where is the thought process?
And really, where is the economic crisis? In the past month I have made more money - percentage wise - than I have in a long time. To me that means that someone (hello federal government!!) is over-reacting because I'm in one of the very first businesses that people cut back on when they're short on money. The general public cuts back on vacations, on trips, on eating out, on special occasions, on date nights, etc. when they're short on money. To me, this means that the people who are actually hurting are the people who can afford to hurt a bit - not the everyday people walking down the street.
So to all you millionaires who are worried that you're not going to be able to buy your new yacht/vacation home/rolls royce - OOPS. Eat a PB&J - you'll feel better.
