Let's just keep giving all the money to the scumbags and assholes who just keep driving our economy into the ground and they get richer while we suffer. If we deregulate derivitives trading, you can kiss economic recovery goodbye. Can you say $12 a gallon gas? $15? $20? You want food and water prices so ridiculously high that only a slim majority can afford them? It would quite literally be economic suicide for us.
