[Politics] Bailing

[digitaldiscipline]

So, how about the Fed offering to throw itself (and, by extension, the American taxpayers) on that grenade, huh? Man, that gives me some warm fucking fuzzies. Makes me wish I were an incompetent, avaricious captain of industry, so I could engage in risky behavior and not get burned at the stake when the consequences caught up to me and the larger economy. Their fuckup, their bill. Isn't that how the free market works? Ahh, I love the scent of artificial naivete in the morning. It smells like... well, cheap hot cocoa, actually.



If you are still undecided about which candidate's tax plan you want to see implemented, allow me to make a none-too-subtle suggestion: The candidate who is going to lower your taxes while increasing the tax burden on the assholes who created this bullshit.


For the slow folks in the audience, that's the guy with (D)-IL next to his name on the Senate roster and the running mate who isn't actively impeding a state investigation into illegal activities by having folks ignore subpoenas.

Was the music in the 80's good? I was listening to a lot of Billy Joel and Bon Jovi.

20 years ago, Joy Division was reforming into New Order, Floodland was coming off a run of top-20 singles, Pet Shop Boys were throwing up hit after hit, Guns'n'Roses and Metallica didn't suck yet, David Lee Roth's solo career was amusing instead of sad and tired, NWA released "Straight Outta Compton", Phil Collins was releasing his best solo stuff, it goes on and on.

Oh, and Bon Jovi released New Jersey 20 years ago last Sunday.

See? Folks, this is what supporting your assertions with facts will do for your argument - Pete is, in fact, right.
