Default another $5 billion bailout

so I was watching CNBC and yet another industry has asked congress for help.

that's right suffering from the double whammy of an economic downturn and technical piracy, the pron industry has stepped forward looking for a 5 billion dollar bailout from the TARP fund.

seriously....they did.


At the time the story was reported, no members of congress had stepped forward to support the initiative.

Maybe the WWE will be next

WWE to cut 10 percent of its workforce

"Jan 9 (Reuters) - World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE.N) said it plans to cut 10 percent of its global workforce to control costs, and increase earnings and margins."


Everyone needs a bailout!

We are going to bankrupt the country and there is no slowing down. The treasury is printing money or issuing more debt like it is going out of style. Scary huh?!

Eventually, the Chinese are going to own us. I have got to brush up my Chinese reading and writing skills before it is too late.

True true...

We have got to rebuild the manufacturing sector back to what it was used to be, otherwise we are doomed. There is no other cure for trade deficits.

Too bad our car industry is still nickeling and diming with the UAW and still not competive.

It is like, I have not seen anything made in U.S.A. in the department store for a long long time.

How sad!

When you have China Making Knock Offs for a fifth of the price it is hard to compete ... They dont follow any patent laws .....
