In the economy, as in a free Republic, there must be a system of Checks and Balances and, in reality, that is what has made American capitalism succeeed.

That's why we NEED the ZOT!

Cheers!

Watch it, he is known as the “Gorilla” for a DAMN good reason. This guy has a reputation for jumping up and down and screaming. He is not a small man. When he yells jump people wake up startled from impact with the moon.

without the Lehman Bros. associates and clientele in the stands, he’ll make about $2m on his next contract. Besides, the Yankees were selling out before he came to town and would without him.

His stock dropped too? Poor guy, I have no idea what he’s going to do with just 500 million he’s made in the past 5 years. He probably took a big hit on the 72 million he made last year.
