Credit Crisis
Alright, so with the recent takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac by the government, the taxpayers are the ones who will bare the financial burdens of other peoples mal investments. The government bails out these huge corporations at the expense of its people. We are in a financial crisis, our debt is in the trillions and growing at exponential numbers everyday. We are living well beyond our means and we don't hear about it in the media, except for Glenn Beck and maybe a few others. With the economy being such a hot issue, I do not understand how major media can ignore this and I do not understand why the American people are not asking more questions. Both major parties are dancing around the major economic issues. They both talk about change, which sounds good, but they don't offer us anything new. I am so tired of this political game, we need real leadership that understands the problems and will address them, instead of following the platform laid out to them by their party. Obama and McCain don't even differ on many issues at all, and when they do, it is so marginal that it doesn't matter at all. Can we get someone else on the ballots besides these two corrupt parties please?
