They're about to do it. Watch them smile and congratulate themselves.

[DrDea]

 Where is the list of who voted how?

[Eagler]

just wondering how many ppl are going to lose their health insurance now that insurers have to cover "mental" health to the same degree they cover physical health. This is the largest turd of turds in the pork j past by our great leaders.

probably not too many will lose coverage but benefits will get worse and the price is sure to go up for all of us who now pay for their health insurance. it'll cost main street one way or another...or both

[CAP1]

never happen

need to enact TERM LIMITS!!!

AGREED.......
but that'll never happen either....why would they take away their own cash cows?

[CAP1]

The good news... A revolution is required, and this is potentially much cheaper than blood in the streets.

 Even if things wait until next year to implode people will still remember come 2012 about how they sold us out




Charon

no.....no they won't. the general public forgets what they've been told on average in about 6 months max.

[CAP1]

Yup. My contribution to the beginning of routine defiance of the law by common citizens. Besides, the kid won't get charged.. he's just a minor. Drug dealers use 'em all the time as mules. They'll come for me.

And I relish the publicity and the opportunity to present the evidence.

providing you're given the oppurtunity.

[Obie303]

I don't care about these lying politicians anymore.  I'm moving to Australia for at least four years.  Spatula, make room for me and please put another shrimp on the barbie.

[Nwbie]

I'll ask this again
Are you angrier that they actually passed this 400 some odd page- earmarked, pork bill instead of the 3 page original bill aimed at the actual "crisis".
Or
Just the fact that a "bailout" bill was passed at all?


Plus, I am fairly certain that many of the people who voted no the first time, planned on the "bloated" crap that was finally passed, those no votes the first time, cost the average American citizen 4 to 5 times more than if the first go-around had been approved. The additional "earmarks" would have needed to be passed on their own. It was amazing to see how many people started contacting their reps the next day when they realized their retirement funds had just been torn in half, and said ...uuumm.. never mind, please vote yes. Reality Bites.

[Hangtime]

They won't let you in. Not to live or work.. tour, yes. Immigration, no.

[Torque]

well... that's what you get when socialized capitalism masquerades as a free market cure...  the markets are distorted with artificially low interest rates allowing for monetary inflation to create false prosperity bubbles... sure the serfs play along and are happy with their delusional wealth until the credit card bills comes due and the crying starts.

funny thing tho... the federal reserve bank is neither federal nor does it have any reserves... it is a tea house brothel for socialists whom have a monopoly on the world's reserve currency... so when they inflate the dollar to pay for bills at home the world pays via a repugnant inflation tax.

ironic tho... the only tool the fed has left at its disposal to stop the house of cards from falling is more inflation... because now america is the biggest sub prime borrower of them all on an adjusted rate mortgage... as their debt is now financed by short term t-bills instead of long term bonds.

what do you think would happen if short term interest rates jump with a 10 trillion dollar debt... don't cry for me argentina. 

but like i've been saying all alone... the free money days are over for the empire... blame the euro i suppose.

[Fangio]

... the free money days are over for the empire...

Good Post.


But....   I disagree on the part above.  I think the free money days are just getting started and the Fed doesn't even have the presses out of first gear yet. At least not compared to where they are going to be in the top speed run we are embarking on....

There is only one way this mess ends and that with a currency system collapse and replacement AFTER the Fed is done inflating all of the debt to worthlessness. We have years left to run.

[Nwbie]

Everyone tomorrow - the whole country- empty those penny jars and spend it tomorrow
Cash only - will freak out the Fed

[Mr No Name]

by opening up credit, we are just digging a much deeper hole... Tomorrows shopping list: ammo, dried food... at least we have deer here to shoot.

[john9001]

in other news , the euro and pound are down and the dollar is up.

[Fury]

Just the fact that a "bailout" bill was passed at all?

Yes, that any bailout bill in any form passed.  I didn't like the original $700b and I still don't like it now that all the pork was added, at heart it's still the same $700b.

I no longer care who wins in November.  I'm voting against all incumbents on my ballot.
