Everything else has been sucked up by the Bankster-Squids.<br /><br />Interesting times: what will they go after when Social Security has been privatized (given to Wall Street) and all pensions, public & private, have been used to pay Government Debt?<br /><br />I'm sure they'll think of something, but what?Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03176801494652946278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2222630007427380394.post-16474272592598246392010-11-29T16:46:51.552-06:002010-11-29T16:46:51.552-06:00"I should preface this post by saying that I ..."I should preface this post by saying that I am a fan of Megan McArdle's blog.
