]]>To Bail Or Not To Bail...http://www.thinkwecan.com/editorials/to-bail-or-not-to-bail.htmlDon Hess2008-10-02T20:33:00ZThe Privatized U.S.Our financial experts should now realize that Main Street knows a good bit about the bailout and the economy and we are tired of throwing gigantic sums of good money after a Niagara of bad.  Just how many con jobs, stupid decisions and low-class thieves in high-class places is one society supposed to endure?

Cowardly and cruel because it further used and abused the two, young women.  And it was a behind the back attack accomplished with innuendo.  Where I come from, we don’t kick women, especially when they are down.  We used to have a name for guys who fight like this—what is happening to us?
