Financial Cleansing
RECEIVED Fri., Oct. 3, 2008
Dear Editor,
The more I read about and watch this financial bailout unfold, the more I realize that we American citizens are being deceived by members of our government. I’ve also noticed that during this so-called economic meltdown, our dollar has actually gained in strength against foreign currencies, and the price of oil is dropping. Isn’t this a good thing? I have yet heard anyone address why this is happening. Would anyone out there care to explain this? Maybe we need a healthy market correction, or “cleansing,” to take place. Or is there something more sinister going on that members of our government don’t want us to know about? All we keep hearing is how George Bush and Henry Paulson are trying to rush us to judgment (kind of like he did with the Iraq invasion). By the way, the level of pork spending attached to this plan is insulting.
