Government is in such an extreme amount of debt that they must keep interest rates low. Otherwise, we the taxpayer couldn't even make the interest payments.

Excuse me? Weren't we just concerned last week that the FDIC could not cover all the existing accounts? Now we want to make them liable for more without increasing their funding? A tax cut will not go very far. It will not be realized until.... tax time and without considerably reeling in spending we are going even further in the hole. I do believe now it is not ignorance but a power play to bankrupt this nation. |

I am having a tough time getting any communication to my state's congressmen. Their emails bounce back "failure notice". I can't get any call through to the Capitol switchboard. I think they are all just ducking the public.

Here is an interesting comparison between our current troubles and those of the late 19th century.
