I think that when I occasionally spoke about agendas and smoke screens as a cover up for what was coming in the future came to light yesterday when the government "sold" us out of the American existence we have known for many years. Am I one of those misinformants as they call bloggers? No, I am speaking about what I know. Most of my life was lived in the "middle class". If you don't know who middle class people were, I will tell you. At one time, they were called the backbone of America. All were hardworkers who paid their taxes and bills without having the government or collectors prod them. They didn't want what the "Joneses" had, they lived within their means. Those independent people didn't rely on the government to save them and thus be owned by them. That's what is happening now, the federal government is taking over and that will lead to socialism. I don't want that, do you?

I complained, as most people say, about the hype that was being put on us doing the hurricanes and our voices of experience were not being heard ... we don't need to get out for every storm that enters the gulf. The same tactic was used with the Wall Street crisis, panic the people and they will submit. Well, we didn't panic, in Mississippi alone there were many emails and calls jamming the circuits to our state representatives saying, "We don't want this, let it crash"! People from all over the country were trying to stop the bail out as majority rules but, in this case, the majority was completely ignored. Even though we weren't heard, $22,000 will be added to each taxpayer and will have to be paid back in three years. Wall Street didn't crash, America did!

For days now, I have had this tight feeling in my chest as a result of what has transpired. It's not a pending heart attack but one of impending doom. If this could happen, what comes next?

An interesting quote below:

I once said, "We will bury you," and I got into trouble with it. Of course we will not bury you with a shovel. Your own working class will bury you.

Russian Soviet politician (1894 - 1971)

Yeah the rich are getting richer it looks like I like Arnold what's his name (can't spell) but he needs to take the millions or billions he has and bail his state out. The states were suppose to handle things not the Feds. Boy is everything a big mess and I am thankful for one thing only,that I didn't do it. lol

Pretty soon there will be no middle class. There will only be the most definitely have nots and the absolutely haves. Sigh.

Fasten your seat belt Sandy, I think we are in for a rough ride.
