Barack Obama and the far-left liberals won the election, and Nancy Pelosi and the far-left have passed a $700 billion bailout package. Now, the top officials of the three major U.S. auto companies have been begging for billions to bail out their companies.

That is just crazy. Those auto manufacturers should file for bankruptcy, and that $700 billion should go for Social Security funds, money the government spent on other things.

The far-left Democrats blame the Bush administration for the poor economy. It seems to me that when the Democrats won the House two years ago, the economy went from bad to worse.

There is too much big government.

I blame both sides for the economy, and now Obama says he will go after the rich people. That sounds like socialism to me. I would warn the younger Americans who voted for the first time to hold onto their wallets.
