24. Another unfunded mandate?
Unfortunately, we have spent our wad on bailing out Wall Street, most notably Goldman Sachs. And funding the Iraq war and the Afghanistan war, and a health care bill that bails out private insurance companies,....

Well, you get the idea, there is nothing left to fund education. It goes to servicing our debt of 12 Trillion now. Obama is living up to the image that Democrats are big spenders. I thought Bush was the contradiction, but no. Clinton signed the bill to dissolve Glass Steagall and here we are, with Democrats leading the way.

So, Obama has reappointed Bernanke, selected Geithner, Summers,... You pays your money and you takes your choice. He has made his bed with the fleas of Wall Street, so gets to lie in it.
