Crash and Burn
The United States House of Representatives voted down the proposed Bailout Plan to give kickbacks to the folks on Wall Street, etc.
Owned.
The wealthy class is trying to make the middle and lower classes pay for the mistakes of their elitist jerks when we’re in more than enough debt as is. Fuck that noise.
Since they voted it down, the stock market has fallen 800 points. Again, owned. I feel for people who have stocks that aren’t wealthy, because they’re going to get fucked over too, to a degree, but I just can’t help but not be devastated. Yet.
The government says we aren’t in a recession.
What are they going to say when we enter Great Depression: The Sequel?
Or WWIII? *shrugs* A thought X sprung up. Kind of scary if you think about it. I wonder… I am technically American, does that mean I would have to pay as well? *evades*
No, I don’t believe you would. You do not currently hold a job in the US, and I’m pretty sure you don’t really have any taxable possessions [house, car, etc] there that need handling…
