The Great Divide

I would just like to add one thing to the commentary on the bailout by the colonel. This is, essentially, socialism - for the rich. I've never been an opponent of socialism in and of itself, but this is the most nefarious kind, and should not go unquestioned. Some food for thought: Washington is willing to dish out $700 billion for the rich on Wall Street - just think about how many times over the people of New Orleans could have been saved from Hurricane Katrina by $700 billion, or even a fraction of it.
