I just got this in an email. I remembered it after I read it but hadn't thought about it in a long time. Back in 1990, the Government seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in Nevada for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it. They failed and it closed. Now we are trusting the economy of our country to a pack of nit-wits who couldn't make money running a whore house and selling booze? Something to think about, isn't it? When they can sell two things that are always in pretty high demand and can't even make any money doing that, why should anyone trust them to "fix" the economy? Not to mention that government policies are what caused the problems in the first place.

European Leaders Agree to Inject Cash Into Banks "...the Bush administration has embarked on an overhaul of its own strategy. Two weeks after persuading the Congress to let it spend $700 billion to buy distressed securities tied to mortgages, the administration put that idea aside in favor of an approach that would have the government inject capital directly into the nation’s banks — in effect, partially nationalizing the industry."

Look at the fella in the blue tie with red stripes. Isn't that a dead ringer for that weird actor guy?
