Here we are in the year 2009 and the Bush ghost still haunts us. Americans have lost confidence in our large financial institutions and rightfully so since these corporations prefer the dollar over common sense. AIG would rather pay $200 million in bonuses from taxpayer bailout money than save their own corporation. It doesn't take a genius to figure out the Bush influenced financial world is the source of its own demise and obviously their own worst enemy.
Meanwhile, thousands are losing their homes, possessions and ending up homeless. Tent cities are springing up outside of major cities similar to the Great Depression in our past. The definite lack of concern towards these people displayed by major corporations is pathetic. CitiBank and other credit card companies bailed out by taxpayer funds showed their empathy by raising interest rates. The message is simple as given by CNBC messenger Ron Santelli, these people are losers who lost their homes so why give a break. Fantastic Christian values from American corporations showing the best of business darwinism. Meanwhile, no one has really answered who will pick up the pieces; Americans are footing the bill, but who steps forward and puts it all back together again.
Business and journalism ethics have to change to win back confidence of the American public. The flagrant violation of ethics in both professions has caused many to pause and wonder why they are being subjected to such financial and intellectual abuse. The Bill O'Reilly predator tactics, Glenn Beck's doomsaying, and Rush Limbaugh's normal arrogant rantings have cast doubt in the minds of Americans who now wonder what the truth is. Apparently, the Right is angry over losing power and is now intent on retaliating not only on the new President, but all wrong thinking citizens as well.
Overall, it is pathetic! Americans need to pull together to overcome the depression, yet Limbaugh, Beck, Coulter, O'Reilly, etc. want the opposite. They preach the values of despair and gloom while enjoying massive salaries through questionable broadcast tactics. Citizens need to see through this and focus on what is best for all of us.
The bottom line is survival. We need to remember it was 8 years of their thinking that caused this mess and it's not something to be proud of.
