Why Saddle My Children With Paying These Debts?

When Obama gave his inauguration speech Tuesday the stock market plunged 332 points, the worst Inauguration Day sell-off in 113 years. No longer the candidate, who freely criticized President Bush, Obama must now come up with solutions to problems the country is facing. Obama seems to think that increased government spending is what is needed to get the economy humming again. What about providing incentives for people and businesses to produce and work? What about failing banks and their toxic assests? While you are at it, will you please explain to me why my children and grandchildren will have to be saddled with these debts of these irresponsible banks?.

I'm afraid we (collectively) opted for the guy who is going to increase government and pitch as the cure all for everything. Historical note of interest: Lenin ran for office and his campaign slogan was you guessed it: hope and change.
