Deficit spending to new heights (or is that lows?).

With all this talk about OUR government buying an interest in poorly run companies and bailing out those poor unfortunates that bought more house than they could afford, I figure it must be my turn. All I have to do is stop making my mortgage payments for about 3-4 months and I will qualify for my own little 'bailout'. With that in mind I have gone on a spending spree and probably will need bailouts for 2010 and 2011 also. Isn't this fun, it's like winning the lottery. Borrow as much as you want, fritter away the money, and Uncle Sam will be there with his (I mean OUR) checkbook to straighten everything out. Glory be, and here I thought socialism was somethimg to be avoided. I was just looking at it from the wrong perspective, when the government is taking money from Peter to pay Paul, it makes no sense to be Peter.

I can only hope that the 'Messiah' will save us from this calamity.....but I'm not holding my breath.

Merry Christmas, all!

P.S. One of my 'bailout' coins.
