Bail Out the Citizens, Not the Corporations!
Jesse Richard. Editor of TvNewsLIES.org

Bail out the people and we will not need anyone to save us from the bank collapse! And that's a fact!

Why do we have governments if not to provide for and protect the people? We are told every day that America is the greatest nation on Earth. We are told that communism is bad and that capitalism is good. We are taught to be afraid of socialism and we are told that basic human services for people at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder are bad. The term "entitlements" is used in a negative manner in order to describe all government support for the needy as giveaways for people who just don't work hard enough.

Apparently entitlements are OK with it comes to the survival of predatory corporations. Socialism is fine as long as poor people are not the recipients of the handouts. Well reality is setting in, isn't it? At least that is what George W. Bush and a bunch of criminals in Congress want us to believe, as they are all set to hand your money over to the very people who caused this economic collapse!

Liberals are looking pretty smart right now as hardcore right wing greed is starting to victimize members of that same elite right wing!
