So what I'm hearing is "We're screwing the taxpayer . . . to HELP the taxpayer"??

[HughBeaumont]

Won't be the first time.

Or the last.

And like it's been said before . . . DON'T tell us "There's no money for schools, health care, fiscal solvency, etc" ever again.

1. To help the Chinese taxpayers. n/t

2. This bailout is "doing the right thing for the American people" said one of the parasite

spokesmen from Wall Street this morning on NPR.

There's this magnificent bipartisan effort from Congress, see, and Wall Street guys on white horses trying their very heroic best to act in the best interest of "The American People."

Who, it seems to me, are the same Americans left holding the bag for the bill, but I guess we're all supposed to be too stupid to figure that out?

Do those geniuses actually think we don't know we're being screwed?
The next Repug who makes a snide comment to me about food stamps is going to wish he had NOT said that.

3. Or about "soshulized med'cin!"

So once again:

Tax Money for someone other than middle class to rich white guys = "SOCIALISM"!

Tax Money to bail out corporations and the wealthy that those middle class white guys think they'll be running and part of someday :eyes: = "fiscal responsibility"!

Everyone got that? Good. Find your nearest Republican and kick him/her dead in the ass.
