When will this stop? Can it be stopped? Bailing out the rich?

When will this stop? Can it be stopped? Bailing out the rich?

It will stop when the basic fundiments of America, the Declaration of Independance and the Constitution are truly enacted. American economics evolved under the "Novus Odinarum Secularum" -- That is a new order for worldly matters. Instead of heirophants and tyrants deciding the fates of the people, the people were to be the deciders of their own fate. This was also called "Free Market Enterprise". If you made it, you made it, if you failed you failed. Simple If you unwisely invested in a loosing proposition you lost. That's it.

The system originally worked out without much Insurance. Families held together, communities held together, Congregations held together. The entities of state and governent held together by the will of the people, people helped each other out when time were bad. That is the America I plege my allegiance to.

The false over evaluation of curency based on the cost of insuring losses, insuring fears of legal involvement, insuring against protection from the law of the land, insuring against the high price of drugs. This in a world where the oil money, the drug money, the insurance money, the banks, and even he govenrents of the world are mutually invested to the point that no humans holds the reigns. This must stop, for the safety of mankind and the salvation of mother earth.

The rectification will be achieved only be bring back true value. You get what you pay for. There's no artifical digital money that is used to overprice items beyond the reach of the public, sell them cheaper to those who have Insurance -- let the non-insured loose everything in a world where friendship is a token word -- while the insured can hope for litigation, requirements of documentation, and other bureaucratic bs just to claim what they thought they paid for. The market, as it exists now, is called "The Market".

In ancient times, such as in the time of the Ramayana in India, as culture was formed and codified and documented, it was called "Ravana," the "Ravenous". It eats people, goods, everything. It needs to exist, as trade must be done, but it needs to be controlled. You can read about how Rama delt with Ravana. You can read, in the Lankavatarasutra how the Buddha dealt with Ravana, [much like Christ did as documented in the Bible. -Ed.] Now we have to deal with "The Market".

It is obvious from the past few days editions of the wall street journal that those with money have separated themselves formally from the populace Words like "The bail-out is generally disfavored by informed members of the public, but Congress is fighting hard to get a passing bail out in place." Who's Congress! If the people voted for those representatives, they better aught be voting in the long term interests of their constituents. If they don't, we have no democracy, and at that point it becomes mere mockery to paste the Contitution and Declaration on the walls of our children's schools.
