I am beyond furious at the current state of our economy!

The blame-game aside, our economy is on the brink of a depression. As a result of risky financial maneuvers, deregulation and corporate tax breaks by the Republicans, the Feds are proposing $700 Billion to bail these corporations out.

Guess what? I'm not a Republican, but I have to pay for their mess!

Please don't be naive to think that if these plans don't work out the way that the Feds hope that they will, it could most definitely result in us, the taxpayers, footing the bill for the nightmare that Republicans let these corporate big-wigs get into.

As angry as I am, I do understand that these measures have to be taken. I am not willing to wait in any soup lines just yet. Our economy would be worse if we let these corporations completely fall on their faces. Every American would feel the trickle down financial affect at some point.

However, I don't care what political party you are for or against, this is all a direct result of de-regulation, corporate tax cuts (which McCain wants to make permanent if elected) and greed.

No political party is completely blame-less, but the majority of wrong-doing falls directly on the Republicans, particularly, the Bush administration, which of course John McCain voted with, 90% of the time. Democrats are not 100% innocent, however any measure they had taken in Congress to prevent or correct de-regulation and unnecessary tax breaks, was swiftly VETOED by Georgey boy.

It is now impossible for whoever is elected president to NOT raise taxes. Yet, McCain has the gall to claim that he won't.

He's a complete and total hypocrite.

He wants to support tax breaks but endorses corporate de-regulation and tax breaks that landed us in such a disastrous mess, that every taxpayer will be forced to pay for some of it.

In the words of your own dear Sarah Palin, “Thanks, but no thanks" John McCain.

You're a day late, and $700 Billion dollars short!
