Enough of Everything but Dollars
The Money Party at Work
by Michael Collins / March 2nd, 2009
The government bailout of failed financial institutions locks you into years of debt payments in behalf of the large private banks, debts that you did not create.
By all appearances, it also locks the country into years of a weak economy. That means unemployment, underemployment, and more suffering for those willing to work, but left out of the job market. It means lowered opportunities for those who do work and troubles for dependants and indigents. Vital national priorities including affordable health care and the massive effort required to save everyone form calamitous environmental catastrophes are now on hold or under funded.
