WELL I try to use ex and I've given this one in the past. It's very appropriate. OK so you're driving your auto and it's one of the older ones with the lights for indicators. The RED OIL light goes on. DO YOU continue drive another 1 day, 2, 3, 4 5, days OR do you pull into the nearest gas station and say check my oil and add the 3/4/5 quarts. Well if you drive the engine has a great chance of seizing due to HEAT. Or if one drives too long they hear the mechanic say that'll be 20k for an engine. So let me see, hmmm pull over quickly and pay 10 dollars and then fix the reason for the loss of oil. OR spend the 20k for the engine. There are many who like to think oh heck we could have not done anything with TARP. Sorry count me as one who understands the mechanics and what would have happened world wide. How do we say COLLAPSE. As it was those countries that got cute barely came out hole. Many are still damaged. Then again there are those who would have loved to buy the USA for pennies. Why not just as in 2001 it WAS their intention to crush the financial system. Except in 2008 this excessive damage would have been averted had they just put that OIL in the engine. And THEN fixed the problems. Would there have been excesses. SURE. Always is and will be but to think one could sit on their hands and let em fail is foolish unless it was one's agenda or they had a lay down yard full or engines. This has been deeper due to cause and effect and unfortunately those who made their egregious vote either don't know their participation or do not want to admit such.. Regardless it provided opportunities for many, yet with a high cost they do not still understand. Have a good one and on an aside I'm glad I didn't have you casting your vote on my "first" procedure. You would have voted NO. After all how many of these are there. He's over 60, let him get x treatment or y and fade away. UGH. However there are those who do understand cause and effect are willing to do the right thing and as a result I'm here and can still see, type and think. To the chagrin of many bears. OH and a few bulls. UGH But my teddy bear loves me. If you want to spend more time on this one PM me, but I have a great understanding of CAUSE and EFFECT and how the dots are tied together world wide. Fintas
