If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business -- you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own.

TARP didn't even go to TARP

It was approved and Paulson and Bush decided to give the money to his buddies, propping up stock prices and paying bonuses. No toxic assets were bought. Banks who lost their asses were reimbursed for their losses, did you get reimbursed on your investment losses? Too big to fail my ass. And the left's hero Elizabeth Warren was the govt watchdog turning a blind eye to it all. Elizabeth Warren for president!

Here's how the game goes locally, the local govts spend money on nonsense and comes back every election threatening to cut fire and emergency responders and police because they are broke.

Somehow embezzling more money is suddenly going to change the direction our country is going?

Trillions were passed out on WallStreet and we have nothing to show for it except the lame idea that the sun wouldn't have come up if we didn't give wallstreet executives and their friends overseas trillions of taxpayer money.

The more I think about it, if democrats are given another blank check this fall, I should retire, take this free healthcare that isn't free and hold my hand out with the rest of the democrat voters.
