$700 Billion Dollars Of Bullshit

Oh yeah! Sure! Spend money. It's really not that much money. Less than a trillion. Seriously no big deal. In 40 years, when China jacks up the interest payments on all this low-prime debt, and we all have to go to the fields and learn about The Chairman, I'll just tell my grandchildren that Grandma and Grandpa wanted their pension AND their social security AND their proceeds from the late-in-life flipped real estate AND the tax breaks that don't even sustain the economy as it is now let alone keep it from further debt.

I do appreciate the pretension of actually worrying about this and calling it a "crisis" and saying you don't know "what's going to happen with all this uncertainty...I mean, there are gas lines in South Carolina, I heard!"

"It's the 9/11 of financing!" Yay!!!

But don't worry about it. I think that ignoring all the economic signs of calamity for years and then fixing it in three days is perfectly responsible, all around. As long as you don't feel ANY of the fallout whatsoever for this pyramid scheme--as long as the bills on this blood money don't come due before your last day on the ventilator--then so be it.

When you're dead, we'll be working this $700 billion bailout off. When we're dead, we're still going to be working it off, seeing as we're lying above ground because we couldn't afford caskets. Thanks for eating the entire social safety net, you fat fucks.
