I'm not moving to Canada, and as of yet I have no revolutionary agendas, but this economic crisis/bailout garbage has put me over the top.<br /><br />I would be lying if I said i were surprised that the knee-jerk reaction of the government and those heavily invested in financial markets was/is to throw money at the problem and let the chips fall where they may. Repeatedly lawmakers said the bailout isn't perfect, is flawed, may not work, etc... yet without missing a beat, in the next breath, say that we need to do something now!<br /><br /><br /><br />WHAT?<br /><br />WHY?<br /><br />Have we not learned that as a nation, we suck at snap judgements and decisions made in an undue rush. My personal feeling is that nothing should be done, markets will correct themselves, credit-based businesses and sectors will fail, and the sun will continue to rise, and life will go on. Time for a little house cleaning (literally and figuratively) anyway. Advance the focus of our economy beyond real-estate and speculation to, wait for it, true progress in fields which affect our daily lives, energy, infrastructure, health care, something worth a damn.<br /><br /><br /><br />i'm done. for now<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2181452756222308562-6871401518646327573?l=aaronjazynka.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>ajazynkahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18019472071053797160noreply@blogger.com0
