just how many ignorant people do not understand (or even care for that matter) what is happening to this country.

- how many still believe Obama is a Socialist and coming to get you, so to them the only way to stop that is for the capitalists to win.

- how many are just plain greedy, selfish people who are only concerned with themselves and will not take their heads out of the asses to look at the big picture and really see how Wall St wants to screw this country yet again.

- how many are just moronic idjits who take from the government and then decry the government's attempts to improve life for all. What will they do when their is no safety net?

ELIZABETH WARREN for the Banking Committee!!!
