WHO’S GOING TO BAIL-OUT THE AMERICAN TAX PAYER?
September 20th, 2008 . by Eric MartinIsn’t it incredible, according to the Congressional Budget Office, that once again hardworking average American Taxpayers will have to reach deep into their pockets and pocket books to provide $25 billion dollars from the United States Treasury for the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac mortgage screw-up created by our financial wizzards on Wall Street and our astute investment market analysts employed by our United State Government. Isn’t it time to make the United States Congressmen, United States Senators and the arrogant CEO’s of the S & P 500 corporations, accountable for creating the financial screw-ups, mistakes and miscalculations that must be paid for out of the pockets and pocket books of the average American Taxpayer or more concisely, you and me. Why in the Hell does the average American Taxpayer tolerate the greed and incompetence of its politicians, government officials and corporate exeucutives? The reason is, that the average American Taxpayers are too busy working two or three jobs, paying their monthly bills, raising their families, saving for their children’s college education and bulding a “Big” financial nestegg for their retirement years. Most of our average American Taxpayers in the United States will soon be waking up to the fact that Social Security is evolving into Social Insecurity, where nothing in the future is sacred and nothing is gar-on-teed! Day after day, hard working American Taxpayers roll the dice and hope that tomorrow they will still have a decent paying job that has not as yet been sent offshore and/or overseas. If our average American Taxpayer still has a decent paying job, he/she will be able to pay their personal state and federal income taxes and provide the required necessities for their family and maintain a decent living until retirement. Unfortunately, most hard working American Taxpayers are being informed by our unbiased media, that they should not worry about having a restful retirement, but should now start worrying about where they can get another decent paying job immeidately upon their retirement. If after retirement, our hard working American Taxpayer has a 401-K with his/her employer, they must now worry about how to roll it over into an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and worry if they will run out of money before they die. I ask you, as one of those average American Taxpayers, isn’t it time to make all of our so called business and political leaders, at all levels of our society, accountable for their financial mistakes? These American business and political “Leaders”, like the average American Taxpayer, about their paychecks, their health insurance, their retirement benefits, their childrens education. These so called “Leaders” have placed the average American Taxpayers, who live in the greatest country in the world into financial “Foreclosure” and “Bankruptcy” and has, without conscience or forethought, mortgaged the lives of our children and grandchildren and all future generations in the United States of America. I ask you again, who is going to step forward and “Bail-Out” the average American Taxpayers? The answer, in my humble opinion is “No One”, because there are no other people on this earth who are as good and as generous as the average American Taxpayers. God Bless America and especially its hard working average American Taxpayers!
