americangoy.blogspot.com — I am sick of "experts" on TV, so here are some guys off Reddit explaining this fiscal crisis to you. I guarantee you will learn more than by watching CNN, MSNBC and other s**t all day. Plus, some more of my analysis of this topic.

Who Dugg It?

vxp19, on 09/20/2008, -0/+8USA needs its own Che.
Or Lenin.

Not talking about specific ideologies - just a guy that can get a whole lot of people to follow them and have a 1917-style revolution. Hell, perhaps Russia would lend them the Aurora also.
- americangoy, on 09/20/2008, -0/+5Not a big fan.
  Russian revolution was a terrible bloodbath and people under Stalin had it worse in peacetime than during WW1 (google Ukraine famine).
  
  How about common sense instead.
  
  Government is there to make laws and protect us, the citizens and the country instead of working together with the con men to keep the bubble going.
  
  Make common sense laws and then enforce them.
  - vxp19, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3You must have missed the "not talking about specific ideologies" portion of my previous post.
    
    I didn't say USA needs to head toward the bright communist tomorrow, as Lenin would have said.
    
    I said you need someone that can get a lot of people to follow them, and get rid of your damn politicians, because it's pretty clear where they are leading you (or is that 'lead' already? did you reach your destination yet?)
    
    As for the bloodbath - I personally wouldn't mind seeing pretty much all of your politicians bleed to death, and die in a slow agonizing death. They care for themselves, not you. What will it take to make this as clear to you as it is to me?
  - MarkEarhart, on 09/20/2008, -0/+4What country before ever existed a century and a half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.--Thomas Jefferson

Erich100, on 09/20/2008, -0/+9The best line was - So Tax payers will pick up the debt, the Banks get the profit, Why haven't we burned down DC yet?
- americangoy, on 09/20/2008, -0/+7Quiet you, 'Survivor' is on.
americangoy, on 09/20/2008, -0/+11This one was my favorite quote that I used, as it explains in very simple terms what really happened:

"Let me get this straight...banks knowingly sell bad loans, they then knowingly package these loans into bad investments which they then sell, they do this while at the same time betting the housing market will crash.......and then they get bailed out by the very same people conned into the bad loans in the first place. So the tax payer gets stuck with a loan they cannot afford and then get stuck with the bill to help bail out the crooks that sold them the loan? How ***** up is that?"

- americangoy, on 09/23/2008, -0/+1I disagree with the dude.
  
  Western Europe will feel the pain too.
  
  It is all interconnected.
  
  Note that AIG has insured a lot of Western European banks.
