Thanks Ryan Shafranek (Congressional Malarky Continues)

This is selfishness, behavior typical of the rich individuals we elect to lead us. Why can't they just agree to be leaders and help the country in its time of need! This is the time where they are supposed to earn their pay checks, but as we see, they don't care about us. The rich just can't take it, but noblesse oblige is necessary, politically and economically.. this is a very tryin time in our country, and fear of helping others can't be the plague sweeping through the body of indivuals we have elected to SERVE us..they want to lead us into an economic tsunami, while they flee for higher grounds..smh

Congress Continues Debate Over Whether Or Not Nation Should Be Economically Ruined


09.10.03 WASHINGTON—Members of the U.S. Congress reported Wednesday they were continuing to carefully debate the issue of whether or not they should allow the country to descend into a roiling economic meltdown of historically dire proportions. "It is a question that, I think, is worthy of serious consideration: Should we take steps to avoid a crippling, decades-long depression that would lead to disastrous consequences on a worldwide scale? Or should we not do that?" asked House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA), adding that arguments could be made for both sides, and that the debate over ensuring America’s financial solvency versus allowing the nation to default on its debt—which would torpedo stock markets, cause mortgage and interests rates to skyrocket, and decimate the value of the U.S. dollar—is “certainly a conversation worth having.” "Obviously, we don't want to rush to consensus on whether it is or isn't a good idea to save the American economy and all our respective livelihoods from certain peril until we've examined this thorny dilemma from every angle. And if we’re still discussing this matter on Aug. 2, well, then, so be it.” At press time, President Obama said he personally believed the country should not be economically ruined.
