How dumb do they think we are?

Capitalism has screwed the American People once again because of greed! Don't you just love how CEOs make millions of dollars and now that their decisions have drastically failed their companies, we the tax payers are going to get saddled with their bad decisions.
Whether it be the select democrats that decided to not allow the US to buy oil directly from IRAQ at a reduced price; so Iraq sold the stockpiled oil that was set aside to China at full price and made a killing on the oil. Which explains the HUGE budget surplus in a country we are spending billions of dollars trying to stabilize.
Or maybe the lets create local jobs but giving housing loans to high risk applicants at rates they never can afford to repay to stimulate the economy. Do they think that suddenly these people will be able to afford to pay for a house that is two to three times more than they can afford if they are fiscally responsible?
Maybe it is the fact that politicians have sold their souls to giant cooperations so they can get elected and than look the other way when big money fleeces the American Taxpayers.
Or maybe we are all responsible for taking what is handed to us and thinking that we not only deserve it, but feeling that we deserve even more. The only free lunch is the one that you grew in your garden.
When will this stop? When McCain gets elected? When Obama becomes the president who couldn't make a decision to save his life? This stops when the American people say ENOUGH!!!
