Vote outside the box in '08

There should be no bailout for Wall Street! The taxpayers should not be forced to bail out these executives for their bad financial decisions. Let these businesses fail.

Any time our politicians want legislation passed in a hurry, you can be sure it is not in the taxpayers’ best interest. These Wall Street executives are supposed to be the best financial brains in the country. Don’t think that they have made mistakes in their planning. They know exactly what they are doing ... fleecing America.

I don’t see anyone bailing out taxpayers who are losing their homes. We need to vote everyone out of office who is in office now ... starting with Congress. I would love to see everyone vote for a third party candidate for president and break up this one-party system that we now have (the Democrat/Republican system). These guys have been ripping us off for years, and I hope that people are angry enough to vote differently.

I believe that Ron Paul is still the best choice. He has been right about all that is happening right now. Write him in on the ballot, or anyone who is not a Democrat or Republican (with the exception of Ron Paul and perhaps a very few others). We can’t believe anything these politicians tell us because they are lining their pockets at our expense. I hope all Americans will make a REAL change and vote outside the box.
