Look, tejek, what you don't get is that it's all smoke and mirrors. Either our gov't lives within its means or it has to destroy the value of the dollar to NOT live within its means. Either way, all of us can afford less things. So it's a catch 22.

If milk costs $5 and I make $5 per week, but then next week milk costs $10, and I still make $5 per week, has all that government spending made life better for me? No. All that government spending is not helping you and me. It's going directly to recapitalize big banks, who are then turning around and lending the money back to government to keep the circle jerk going ad infinitum.

You need to get off the big bank bandwagon. Those guys are criminals and they are in collusion with our government to steal from the 99%. And so far, they are doing a great job of the grandest larceny in history with the full throated support of unwitting Democrats like you and with Obama's support.

The irony is painful. The middle class' party, which I thought the Democrats were, has become just like the GOP in their support for Wall Street. I thought I'd never see the day.
