I think I see a flaw in the plan.  Aren't you expecting the people who CAUSED this mess to take the necessary steps to CORRECT this mess?  Do I expect the bacteria/viruses which make me ill or potentially kill me to suddenly say, "Oh God, if the host dies, I lose my home.  I've got to knock this crap off."

Before we see implementation of ANY significant remedial actions I think other events will have to transpire.

The Idiot Has Spoken!  Back to cooking pasta sauce.  Important stuff first.

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.

...well, I think the Idiot's right on this one.

Oh sh*t, we're worse off than I thought.  I was expecting either someone to shoot me down or at least to tell me to be quiet and make sauce. Bummer.

Well, now Obama has replaced the Fool on the Hill, there might just be an outside chance...

Are "WE" suppose to be doing something to save our bacon?  Quite honestly, nothing about my life has changed for the past 5 years.  Am I missing something?  Are "WE" missing something that we should be doing?  Please don't say "Write your Congressman."

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
