NO BAILOUT FOR WALL STREET!

If you have not been following this story, you need to wake up! Paulson & Bernanke are trying to screw the middle class of the United States by adding hundreds of billions of dollars to our debt. Paulson calls the "plan" an "asset purchase" plan. This is PURE BULLSHIT! A BOLD FACED LIE! What is being purchased is paper with NO VALUE! These are derivatives - speculative bets made on the direction of particular stock and commodities markets. This is NOT  a move to save "financial markets." This is a move to protect brokerage firms and their fat cat CEO's wealth. If your senators and representative vote for this bailout, they are voting to put this weight of this "crisis" on your shoulders and mine. Don't let them do it. Go here and send a message to your senators and representative demanding that they reject this bailout. Do it now for the sake of every family in this country.
