It's all seems to be about this new age concept, that Greed Is Good, get all you can, screw everyone you can..just as long as your making money. Folks now are not happy unless they have a 5 bedroom house a 3 car garage , RV, Boat, big truck, and a hot rod. They also feel the deserve a vacation home and cruise trips to boot.
All this on a semi-crapy job that doesn't pay very much, so.... the dual income became the new way of life.
Next, folks just plain over spent and extended their credit lines into outer space.

Now the big recession, Ya! big business, overpaid CEO's , lazy crooked government officials, unethical small business owners, labor unions, and just about everyone of us are at fault.

Now we pay the price, lose your house, can't afford to send your kids (with bad grades) to college, your toys get repossessed, your job is history, lose your retirement,...can't afford to golf on Saturdays...Crap!, HMMMMM! It must be those foreign countries that are at fault...it couldn't be our own GREED, .....or now could it.

Most of us are now hurting in some financial way, it's easy to fix, just start living within your means. If this means starting over, so be it..just make the tuff decisions and get your house in order ( maybe that's life in order) .

End of my rant!

PS. I think the 35'000 Feet Club is my best answer to the crooked CEO's and Bad Government Oofficials.
