Bailing out the wealthy
---

It's what the Christo-Fascist wanted all along... isn't it?

Deregulate and let corporations become "too big to fail".
Bail them out.
Start unnecessary wars.
Drain government down to nothing and walk away with our money to Dubai or wherever it is they go.
The Republicans have made hating government their mantra since Reagan and now you are seeing the biggest shift of tax dollars to the wealthy in American history along with the Great Depression.

Goodbye America.
You were a nice idea.

Or will another FDR step forward?

10. Trite. Overused. Non-specific. Non-alliterative and therefore not catchy.

4. We should email our Senators and Reps...
...or phone their offices during business hours.

No additional money for Bush. Bush has been terrible with money.

Wait until we have a new president and let the new president show leadership on finances.
