Now They've Gone and Done It

President Bush has just signed legislation guaranteeing the continuation of the current financial melt-down indefinitely. Of course, Obama wants to nationalize everything. Yea, that always works, except every single time it has been tried.

Meanwhile, the latest bank failures have hit rather close to home. None of this has affected us personally; we use two of the too-big-to-fail national banks to stash our cash. Not that we are 100% safe, but if there is a run on either of our banks, it won't matter any more. It will just be Game Over.

Ah well. We are closing in on a deal for the property. That severs the last tie we have. What have you done to make yourself small and fast?

[Update: More details over at KipEsquire's blog. And here's a great idea: use tax dollars to buy brand new homes and blow them up. That will fix everything for sure!]
