Political Three Card Monte

It’s amusing how politicians switch the blame around for our floundering economy like a street corner hustler playing three card Monte. The honest to God’s truth is that our economic problems are the fault of the same politicians whose job it is to protect us from these problems. It’s not the fault of the overzealous home buyer that was tricked into taking on an ARM loan that would sink him. It’s the politicians that allowed such a loan to exist in the first place. It’s not the hundreds of small businesses that constantly fail because they can’t compete with cheaper products produced by near slave labor in other countries. It’s the politicians that allow those foreign companies to export their garbage to the US. It’s not big business because they are pure profit driven animals and like a dog and a bone they need our lawmakers/politicians to bring them to heel; which they are not. I point the finger directly at Washington (both parties) for putting their own selfish desires first and only giving us the American people consideration when it’s in their own greedy self interest!
