Regarding the U.S. financial crisis

I fear for the future value of my hard-earned dollar. I no longer trust the federal government with spending, nor do countries abroad. When that happens en masse, the dollar will crash.

Sadly, that’s the price we pay for electing big-government knuckleheads into office, and for letting the Federal Reserve buy 80 percent of AIG for $95 billion without a vote, even though U.S. taxpayers will have to pick up the tab.

Man, is our federal government broken (I trust state government so much more right now). When will they understand that “this insanity and the problems we face economically will only occur when we allow the economy to find its own equilibrium. We have to allow the market to endure a recession, we have to allow failure.” — Joe M.

For the sake of our country, at the least to make a statement, write in Ron Paul for president this November. It appears McBama will only continue the trend of frivolous spending and federal intervention.

    I thought it was $85 billion . . . (I guess I could check right now; I am on the Internet afterall.)

    “McBama?” Nice. :)

    But I’m totally in love with Brock Obama. Plus, Brock is one of my favorite names. But if I have to write in Ron Paul, then I guess I will………….

    Bob Barr has my vote but only because he has filed a lawsuit to have McBama removed from the ballot in TX.
