Both sides let the banks buy their souls...and nobody will dare go after the banks, as they have had reigns on the American national direction since the Fed was created.
 
Gramm has no right to be so sanctimonious and loud. Get rid of them in many ways.

I accept Gramm's thought that we whine too much but the man is everything that is wrong with the country. Bought and paid for many times over. This is the author of the Enron loophole so when you are paying $4 for your gallon of gas rest assured a good buck or two of that is thanks to Phil Gramm.

Exactly
 
If there were less Phil Gramm's in the world, we wouldn't whine so much.

I say get rid of em all. I will vote for NO incumbent.
  
Unless they promise to sell me gas for under 2 bucks
 
I will vote for no incumbent unless they promise to keep gas above $4/gallon.

If it follows the Bush 1 pattern the economy will be terrible (not starting to improve) through the election and soon as a Democrat (Clinton) is elected the media will start soft talking and tell how wonderful the outlook is becoming.
 
Pretty much the opposite of what happened in 2000.

We complain because the banks who pay souless coward Gramm's meal ticket allowed people with a 60K income to buy a 500K house, and now we are all paying for it.
 
Tell me what kindof gun did those banks use to force those people to take out those mortgages?
 
Lets put the blame where it really is ok.

No-kay
 
The people will end up paying the price...as usual the overpaid irresponsible corporate cowards will not. The latter deserve a lot more blame than they currently receive - ok?
 
One has to wonder why personal finance is virtually not taught - other than in the most remedial forms - in the American public K-12 system. Could it be intentional? I wonder who would lobby for such a thing.

As gas prices go up, auto deaths decline by avalon02wh

So much for population control.
 
Actually the study authors failed to consider that as gasoline goes past $10 a gallon people will start shooting each other over petrol, thus increasing the deaths.

I heard tonight about how the banks were threatened by rights groups to give mortgages to illegals or the groups were going to sue. It sounded like this was being encourage by congress. Now some of those loans are worthless.
