I find it amazing to hear people “blame” the media for what is happening to our economy.
So, you want to really fix things? Stop crying about the media and get us a RAISE!!!!
Never mind the sideshow tricks about how WEALTHY we’re all getting out here. It’s a lot of bull. All we’ve gotten from this great MODERATION is ACCESS TO CREDIT — The ability To DROWN ourselves in DEBT.
And GUESS WHAT??? WE did. Now, were broke. We can’t make the payments on all those DREAMS. I guarantee the MEDIA folks are in the same position. They’re only lowly writers, folks. They are not the people who make POLICY, political or economic.
I have no formal schooling in finance or economics, but I can add. And I may be a fool, but I do believe that at the end of the day your balance sheet must be in the positive over the long haul.
I do believe that DEFICTS matter.
All that has happened is the bill came due for the 90 + percent of us income/wage earners (who have not really had a raise in years) and we COULD NOT PAY.
It’s the debt, folks…it’s the debt. It’s the debt, folks…it’s the debt.
You want growth again? You have to allow us to pay down some of the debt. We can do that by getting a raise that is BETTER THAN THE Ridiculous CPI used by policy makers.
You know the same MEDIA you are angry at for crying uncle over the debt, is the same media who goes along reporting those obviously manipulated CPI numbers. THEY REPORT WHAT THE POWERFUL TELL THEM IS THE REAL STORY.
You don’t like the story? Fine, tell all those Politicos to stop CRYING for a BAILOUT PLAN (why do we need one if things are rosy), tell the FED to STOP SLASHING RATES (why do we need it if all is well), and ask WALL STREET TO STOP SELLING ITSELF TO THE DEVELOPING WORLD!!!
The MEDIA didn’t CREATE this story. They are merely reporting what all the WUNDERKIN of FINANCE are up to now.
