New York Times- Sept 24 2008
Editorial
To the Editor:
The Bush-Paulson bailout proposal includes the following language; "Decisions by the Secretary pursuant to the authority of this Act are non-reviewable and committed to agency discretion, and may not be reviewed by any court of law or any administrative agency"

(sounds crazy to me)
People are the power of a nation, but they can make or break a nation with a simple thing called a vote. This power can be harnessed to a greater degree. Then why don't we harness it. It's simple the power that be keep us confused in rhetoric. Aren't they suppose to be our voice, then why can't I hear us, not even a whisper. Who's in control, them or us. When we hire someone we expect a job well done, and if not we hire someone else.
Our vote's are our tax dollars at work, then why is it we're not getting our moneys worth. Again, Who's in control them or us.
Before I vote, I make a list of what I would like done, then I listen to the candidate's.If they fore fill just one quarter, then that's how i vote.
Some people may say it doesn't matter, because it's the Elector Vote that counts.
Let me enlighten you! As you must properly know each state has a given amount of Elector Vote's. Now then, each state vote's for the candidate of their choice. So who is in control of these votes, them or us. In state Election we put the vote's in the hands of our state representatives, and we expect them to be our voice in Washington, and not their own special interest. this is why we must vote in the state Election, so that our voice can be heard. If we don't take control they will continue to go around "willie nellie" with our Economy.
Now more to the point, this "bailout". the only reason I see that they want us to "bailout" this company is because it directly affects their money. I don't see why tax payers should be footing this "Bill'". Why don't they use their own money to save the economy. Take, take and take is what they do. It's high time they put up. Can we the working man and woman continue to suffer for the "Fat Cats" in Washington and their special interest. I say "F them", enough is to much. The only ones who lose here are the working class. I ask you is this a monarchy or a democracy . It seems to me we're being ruled. Didn't we fight for Freedom in the "Revolution"
So, who's in control, them or us.
Let's learn to vote and take control!!
Amendment::
let's applaud the republican on their rejection of the bailout, or is this some public relations genius idea, because of the outcry of the voters. "come on!!!" do they think we're stupid, we know it's an election year. there trying to look good. This stunt, or lets call it what it is, an Ambush.These Flem-flam artist have figure out another way to get the money from the tax payer. So braces yourself an hang on to your Ass. In about three days we'll see the new bag that want to but our money in.
this is not about Fannie or Freddie, this is about checks and balances. WE DON'T CHECK THEM, SO THEY TAKE OUR SAVINGS BALANCE!!!!
Again lets get the money back people owe us, lets get the hell out of this war, an no more money for space exploration, Space doesn't need the money Earth does. Right there is the money we need, I'm talking trillions. So lets start there, but I do have other
way of getting the money.
