we WON'T pay for their crisis by ~daisyproof is a very powerful photo that should be seen by a wider audience. It is one of the best "g20 shots" I have seen so far in deviantART. I think no words are needed if we look at it!

Quite frankly, I wouldn't want to pay for our mess either. It's sad, we put people in power who promise us the whole world 'round but give us dirt. The comments I was reading hit the spot dead on. Bank bailouts aren't solving anything. Remember Fannie Mae and Bernie Mac? Oh boy, they're still alive and kicking, and the middle class is bearing the full brunt of their animosity. And then these scandals and frauds come out to the open, and middle class STILL has to bear the brunt. Honestly, I'm sick and tired of giving all these rich people money so that they can give themselves bonuses and what not.

And then there's the issue of the ones abusing welfare. Can't say we didn't have this coming. The companies are running away to China.

California had an election for the new Governor. I actually thought we'd all go through hell and back because of Meg Whitman, but it's not any better from Jerry Brown. But the fact that she even CONSIDERED firing all our state workers in favor of Chinese workers who don't even live here boils my blood. Ahh, I'm ranting.

Perhaps I'm too informed for my age, but it's better than being ignorant of the world. My mom tells me I shouldn't worry over this, yet I do. I remember reading that the gap between what the world sees "Us" as and what we "Really" are is a big gap.

And they're right, they shouldn't pay for our crisis. Meh, I don't know how I sound when I'm saying this, or type (whichever you prefer), Americans have helped other countries for years. I'd only think it'd be fine to help if not a little. Actually, I wonder if I sounded like a politician in that..lol.

I'm going to end this rant before I go psycho on you guys e.e.
I find it unfair that we put people in power who take the money and tell us that they're doing one thing, when they're actually doing a whole 'nother OTHER thing. My dad does this and it's sad.

Really, oh so sad. And my mom who works, suffers. He doesn't make much money, but my mom keeps the food on the table. It's basically what is going on in politics. Live in my house for a day and you'll know EXACTLY what I mean.
