Shortly after President Obama assumed office, the public was informed the the “bankers” and “wall street” boys were at it again! Please consider the following:
1. These individuals received a “whopping” $140,000.000.000in bonuses……$10,000,000,000 more than the $130,000,000,000 in bonuses received the year before!.
2. “Wall Street”ws giving out these record bonuses as “Main Street”was still on the verge of calapse!

5. However: Unemployment is still up high, Mortgage Foreclosures are still up! Productivity is still down! Balance of Trade is negative! Consumer Saving is down!, etc.

5. Does our economic system encourage and legalize greed.? Is this acceptable?
Once again, the aforemention is just to get you started, feel free to expand!
6. What are the Solutions?
