Now if we can get the people that run this country (Its supposed to be us the people but the Politicians have different ideas)to sell their stocks in these companies we might have a fighting chance

I had Dinner with my district Representitive Del. Bill Carrico Last week and he actually said that what is sad is that if we SMALL business owners out there ran our companies the same way that these larger ones are getting bailed out for then we WOULD be charged with nothing short of embezzlement!!! It is stealing, I don't care how they say it!!! And the Gov still bails them out, but will not give me a dime to help me out when I need the money to expand or something!!! But they will surely take about 60% of my revenue in taxes every quarter!!! It is this reason that caused the founding fathers to rebel in the first place!!! They say that the difference now is that we have representation in the Gov, but with the current Gov, I do NOT feel represented!!!

Right!!!

This should be investigated (but by who?) and not just AIG, although they threw the big party they're a good place to start. The other company's having our taxes poured into their pockets should be looked at too.

Politicians come from the same thread as mega-CEO's... they all handle someone elses money.

Me on the other hand, can embezzle anything that I want from my company, because it is my company, not the money of investors or taxpayers.

That is me too I guess, I have NO investors other than myself, so I guess I am the only one I would be stealing from, but when you have to have shareholder meetings because there are so many, and you still do it then you should definitely have to account for it all, especially with ANY company that gets any kind of kickback tax brakes from the gov...

And as far as getting the Guns ready, they better be ready now!!! IMO we are headed down that road already!!!
JustTRY to come and mess with my family and see what happens
