Wouldn’t it be ironic if George Bush ends up being a hero because the government is bailing out all these failing companies to avert a financial meltdown, and John McCain, who was implicated in the last big financial meltdown (for you young folks, it was a little thing called the Savings and Loan Crisis), winds up winning the White House as a result?
So apparently, the only person who has both sense and money in this country is Warren Buffet, because while everyone else is selling, he’s snapping up stocks and companies at a huge discount. He will then wait for the market to move back up again, and sell at a huge profit.
Sure the government is doing essentially the same thing in bailing out the AIG’s of the world, but since the government has no money (it’s OUR money), and isn’t acting out of sense but rather out of election year desparation, I don’t include them in the same category.
