So all you guys think this money is real? It isn’t. It’s printed on a press. It’s paper which, if it didn’t have ink all over, it would have some use.
Giving money of this type to AIG is meaningless. It is just IOU’s being exchanged or creds being redeemed.

You are worried because the same money is what you earn, live on and pay your bills with. Well that just makes you and me a sucker.

We live in an unreal economy based on crooked deals cut by people whose sole interest is their own.

We have elected Mr Obama who, as a Chicago politico is probably no more damaged than any other Illinois seat warmer, but to expect him to solve anything is, well, naive is the kindest word to use.
