Poof! There go American Dreams










I looked at the Stock Market Values today and had a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach. I think the visual of schredding money sums up my feelings. I am afraid to look at my money market funds or my retirement funds this morning. It is a bit more than Poof! There go American Dreams I have digigently saved for years so I would have a comfortable retirement and now I wonder if I will need to work forever. How did we get into this mess? Who was watching our backs as the banking industry walked away with billions of dollars? When will it all end? How come the government is using tax money (my money) to bail out the banking industry? What a mess! I don't want to hear candidate retoric about how to solve the problem I want to know specifics. The candidate that can give me that has my vote.
