FUNYY huh. and of coarse there are no managers available and they don’t have a CEO….

THANK GOD FOR INTERNET INFORMATION>>>

Dang it! When rich people blow their money they can go to the govt. to bail them out. I agree, the rich are different!

Unfortunately no, but I’ll take your suggestions.

You’re looking at it backwards.

Mespo,

Have you ever read “Down and Out in Paris and London?” or “Keep the Aspidistra Flying?” both by Orwell?

Attitude is everything. –mespo727272

I suppose that what you said is true in the sense that we are all human beings and the amount of money we have doesn’t change our essential human character. And of course, some of the poor in America are poor because of hard luck or other bad circumstances.

But in another sense I don’t think that poor people are no different than rich people in terms of their moral character, work ethic, habits of life or education level – especially in America. For most people most of the time, we reap what we sow. We are today what we chose to be ten years ago.

One example of why I think this is because of what I have seen of lotto winners. What I have observed is that when poor people win a lottery, they will more often than not go off and have a big splurge and blow it all after a few years (or even months). When more middle class or upper middle class people win they tend to save & invest at least a portion of it.

Generally, whatever character and patterns of life a person had before they win the lottery tends to go with them when they suddenly become rich. And more often than not, the lack of character that makes people poor (or at least causes them to stay poor), only causes them to become poor again over time even when someone dumps a wad of cash in their lap.

So saying that poor people are only different from rich people by virtue of the money they have – I would say no. If you took all the money away from America’s rich and gave it to all of America’s poor people – ten years later, most of those plundered rich people would be working hard somewhere on some job or some personal business venture – and most of those poor people would be broke again with nothing but memories of how they pissed it all away.

Rich people are just poor people with money.

Whine and complain all you want about what this man did but would any of you turn down an opportunity to talk a dumb bank out of $20M?

It should surprize no one that a dumb bank is now a defunct bank.

“During its weeklong deliberations, Congress made many changes to the Bush administration’s original proposal to bail out the financial industry, but one overarching aspect of the initial plan that remains is the vast discretion it gives to the Treasury secretary.”

I knew cheney would get this incredible power. It was clear that’s what he wanted more than anything else in the bailout. There is no way he should have this power and Congress has folded, or looks like it’s ready to fold, again. This is a non functioning “govt.”

Duh… I just realized that actually exists: it’s called the F.B.I.

I have directly learned that it is difficult or impossible to enforce Codes of Ethics and Oaths of Office and violations of those public trust pledges are rarely, if ever, litigated.

As a former LEO who took an oath and adhered to stringent codes of ethics, I find that today many people ignore those codes and oaths to which they swore (or affirmed).

Great idea for the futures market for “non-employables.” How about some derivatives for “non-talkers,” “non-runners for office,” and my personal favorite “non-nancy-graces’s.”

For the squares among you.

I mean if we’re keeping track and all…

Hell put me down for a yard.

As of today, I am announcing my willingness to be fired from the George Washington faculty for a comparable severance salary. I have worked at GW for 19 years. That comes to 6935 days or $6,935,000,000. I will go in for my check on Monday, but allow me to thank all of my students and colleagues for their hard work and friendship. My termination is a bitter thing, but my $7 billion severance will at least give me some solace in my golden years

Do you think they’d consider firing me?

I realize I don’t work there but they shouldn’t hold that against me.

JT,JT,JT – this is all a simple misunderstanding.
And before you go off half-cocked and get yourself in trouble with the ADA, consider,a ‘dyslexic’s moment’.

Little doubt the money was intended for the FHA (Federal Housing Adminstration) ie HUD which provides allkinds of info on how to secure loans AND futures – for first-time home buyers – NOT the ‘AHF’

Especially when you’ve already got the baloney.

But he could have at least tried Vonage™.

Great work if you can get it.
