So the House didn't pass the bill that is supposed to bail out Wall Street yesterday, and I'm wondering if this is going to be a good thing or a bad thing. It does not really seem fair to me that the citizens of the United States should have to pick up the tab on what was apparently years and years of unregulated loan practices. And all of this with the hope that one day the American people may profit from buying all these assets that no one really even knows what they are worth. I am no fuckin genius when it comes to politics but from what I can already tell about the Bush administration and how the president is basically trying to once again bully the American public into following along with one of his economic policies to me sounds like a disaster in the making. So we have practically a decade of crooks on Wall Street using questionably lending practices that didn't follow procedure, and now we are all stuck with having to pay for the government to clean up their mess. Fuckin horseshit if you ask me, and I'm sure Bush and everyone in his adminstration is going to find a way to amass huge profits from it all in one way or another.
Here we go again. I graduated from college once, got a job did okay for a while, economy collapses lose my job and I end up going back to college to get another degree. I graduate from college, get a job, do fairly okay for a while, global pandemic, civil unrest, inept president, economy collapses. Basically lose job. What in the fuck is actually happening? For starters, I feel like I have made some really dumb mistakes in life. I know I did not do things the way that most expect after high school. I hated the thought of being just like everyone else. I had really high hopes for myself. I guess everyone starts out life this way, thinking that they are always just on the cusp of greatness and that they just need their big break. I had no intentions of ever going to college, ever getting a degree or being what I just thought was a sucker. Just like when I saw 'A Bronx Tale', I felt that working people were idiots. Breaking your back for some boss that doesn't give a shit abou...
