Fairness and Kindness

An economic downturn measures the true character of a country. While the present regime enacts measures, the USA will continue her downward spiral.Investment derivatives, Collateralized Debt Obligations and subprime mortgages are not fair to small businesses and consumers. The financial industry created fraudulent instruments, pocketed enormous profits and passed off the losses to the taxpayers.The manufacturers have formed collusive pacts to deprive the public of control of food, fuel and other vital resources. Recently, grain prices tripled, as cartels administered prices. Come election time gasoline prices drop as magically as they rose. They will fall until the consumers abandon all thoughts of alternative energy sources.Are the Big3 and the Seven Sisters being kind to us?The medical profession sits at the apex of cruelty.National Health Insurance should have a reality sixty years ago.Greed consumes us on the upside and fear rules the downside. When these emotions took hold for centuries, we called them the Dark Ages.
