    You are a hard man, OldLegoMan. This is the consternation of the U.S. consumer when she realizes no one was cutting her a deal at the bailout. I think she has an american flag on her shirt but I can hardly tell…

    Yep that’s an American Flag. It’s a question we’re all asking. As much as Rachel Maddow tried to put a humorous spin on it last night, I ended up with smoke coming out my ears after hearing of the arrogance of the banks. It seems the money has mainly gone to fatten the fat cats. Grr…

    This one is hard to interpret. We put a ton of money into the banks to lubricate the credit market and get the economy flowing again. And they refuse to tell us what they’ve done/ are doing with it.

    I’ve written to all 3 reps to DEMAND that the banks be held accountable for that money. NO SECRECY! NO BONUSES! Or else GIVE IT THE F*CK BACK TO US!

    I’ll bring the pitchforks if you’ll bring the torches.

    Wasn’t the bailout bucks supposed to trickle down to the folks that were in threat of foreclosure? I just haven’t seen very many folks on the news jumping with joy because they were saved with funds from the federal/bank related programs.

    I could have a $8/hr job Monday morning just by showing up as a warm body WILLING to work my balls off doing what ever I was told to do. Lower your ego driven expectations. Take an illegal’s job. It is OK for someone else to take those kind of jobs but not Oldie7. However, based upon the number of posts and when they are posted, Old7 is a wonder boy of independent means, and obviously does not accept his SOC. SEC. check, or use Medicare. That is for those with lowered EGOs. Retired in 99, is 71, RETIRED AT 63, TO COLLECT SOC.SEC. What a fraud.

    oldlgo, you are too freakin funny! i worked concrete construction for 25 years before breaking my ankle 2 years ago. i couldn’t hire a legal citizen if i tried. the work was just too hard for the spoiled, lazy, “the world owes me”, americans. yes, it was hard, dirty, hot, sweaty work, but i went home every night with a sense of a job well done, and i never suffered from insomnia! i have to laugh when people complain about illegals, these people are building you roads, bridges, and houses. and getting the food you eat onto your table. would you work in a turkey slaughterhouse for 10 bucks an hour? thought not
