Every American understands the challenge of our economy in very personal ways."As I would if it weren't for my Sugar Mama."
Lifetime savings have been wiped out by greed, bad judgment, criminal activity and the natural course of economic cycles.
"Ha-ha, suckers! I got mine on the dot-com boom, thank you for buying my Enron shares at $90!"
Jobs have been lost - retirements postponed - personal debt has increased and more and more of our fellow Americans are squeezed out of health care.
"Meanwhile, I get my hair cut for only $150, what a bargain!"
You have to give him credit for one thing, at least he is making some thoughtful comments on real issues, even if his methods and conclusions are questionable.

Man, I still have flashbacks to the last election. "Lockbox." "Prescription drugs for the elderly." "Lockbox." "No child left behind." "Lockbox" "Saving Social Security." "Lockbox". "Did I mention prescription drugs for the elderly?" "Lockbox".
AAARRRRGGGGHHHH! I just about put a brick through my television during the "debates". What a bunch of empty rhetoric.
So give this giant fake credit for at least seeming to appear thoughtful. It's a big improvement over what I've heard discussed as "issues" by the last group of presidential candidates.
