I used to trust our government, up until Bush's second term. That's when I came to the realization that government was just playing fast and loose with our money.

Obama? -snort- More of the same, only he's doing it FASTER!!!

Lol. This is my point...although when you watch the news you'd think only a tiny fraction was mad. WIth most of the people I know...if you mention the word government and it sends them off into a 20 minute anger filled rant.

The government is entirely corrupted...and not just by bankers, big business or special interests groups....we have politicians taking money FROM OTHER COUNTRIES for the love of god!

Too much money was at the top....and those at the bottom had nothing to maintain their stature...so they went into debt. The DEBT TRICKLED UP after it trickled down.

Yeah the vaunted "economic theory" will destroy us both ways.

Why not include Clinton? Here is a man who for his whole adult life worked as a government employee. He NEVER held a private sector job in his entire adult life.

Less than 4 years out of office his personal worth was estimated 200 million dollars.

I don't mind a man earning a fortune but I always wondered what exactly
did he do to earn the huge windfall?

So are they. Our elites are not the first group of people to decide that they can cheat and steal whenever. The people here will stop giving the elites the benefit of the truth and people in other countries will stop giving the elites respect. This is what happened to Michelle and Barack when they tried to secure the Olympic games for Chicago. Soon the elites will want to take the bus back to a time when having power in America meant something besides the ability to hurt Americans.
