I for one hope that Obama and the current gov't feel the squeeze and make some attempt to fix or at least address the problem. Poor bastard will be a scapegoat, that is for sure...

Well said Finnster.

I doubt if there are very many Americans who are going to raise thier hand if asked "Who is going to pay for this?". We all want someone else to take the burden - thus, getting out of this mess is going to mean that our leaders are going to have to make some tough, and very unpopular decisions that are going to make most of us suffer.

I for one do want the misery spread equally to all, and ot me, that means some way of eliminating the loopholes that the richest portion of our nation find so favorable. Unfortunatley, they are the ones that can also afford to write a big check to the lawmakers. Thus, we need a grassroots foundation that would eliminate campaign contributions, and ALL of the possible veins of money that flow into it. That is the only way we wil have unbiased representation in DC.

I do like to see how excited people are with Obama. He says all the right things - I just hope he has what it takes to make the change happen. And I hope we the people are willing to pay the price to get better.
