Our Future as a whole...

So I am sure many know about the 700 billion$ bail out that has been in the news. Well I will be honest I was glad when I read that it didn't pass. I know just hold on to your britches. I just get so mad when I think about bailing so many of these banks out of the hole that they dug for themselves. I truly think that we should just ride it out, because it has to get a whole lot worse before it can get better. Now don't ask me what we should do to fix the problem, cause I don't know, I am not that smart nor do I think anyone else is. But I do know either way the ball falls Americans are getting screwed and I am pretty pissed about it. That would be the reason I don't want to bail people out. Part of me thinks, their are consequences for our actions and I think people who screwed things up should have to face them, and I know that would mean even I would feel the consequences for what they did. But I feel like well maybe then it won't happen again, but that is a joke. But I do see the importance of the bail out, because well like Gary said last night "life as I know it would be no longer "(or how ever he said it). It might not be the Great Depression but I am sure it would be darn close. To be honest I am not ready for it and I don't think anyone else is either. But if we do bail these jerks out then I feel we are giving them a free ride while we pay for their 700 billion dollar bail out in our tax money meaning taxes would most likely increase and I can imagine we will all feel that as well. So either way I see it the American people (I am talking about the honest working American) will pay for what others did to get rich. I get worried about this because Daryl and I just left our College life (where we had no money) and we are not even close to having a nice cushion to fall back on. So part of me wants to do the bail out so I have more time to save and get ready before the government finds out the bail out didn't do the trick either. I am not too worried at times though cause I do live in a town where the jobs are booming and there is a ton of money to be had, and the local economy is pretty good, plus Wyoming is a pretty responsible state and has taken care of their business fairly well. But I do worry cause who knows what will happen and I feel like I need more time. I am not asking for time because I was irresponsible and didn't get a cushion before, but it was because I was a poor college student who lived paycheck to paycheck. I don't know what Congress is going to do but something has to be done and I just hope that when everything really does crash in a fall and their are not pieces to catch I will be some what ready cause, this all just freaks me out.
