What the hell is wrong with you people, wake up!

I've had it with all the "It's all the corporation's fault" bullshit. We should be blaming the government for creating this problem.

They were the ones that mandated banks in the 30s and 60s to give a percentage of their loans to people everyone knew couldn't pay them back (if they didn't the government would freeze their growth, which is a death sentence for any business)

They were the ones who have kept propping up these failing policies rather than letting them fail early when the impact would be minimal (look at social security and medicare, they are nothing more than a cash cow for other projects to the government)

They were the ones who created an entitlement-dependant voting base through years of socialist New-Deal policy (which ensures many getting those loans intentionally stay poor because they get lots of money for doing absolutely nothing except vote and make bad decisions)

They are one of only two professions where they can know jack shit about something, and everybody believes them when they say they are an expert (and then listen when they blame someone else for their own screwups, which is actually enhanced by the average voter's abysmal attention span)

And now the government is covering up their failed policies through blaming "corporations", wasting $800,000,000,000 of your tax dollars, and pushing an even larger and more wasteful government. I would say to get off your asses and do something about it, but with a 14% approval rating and an 85% re-election rate, its pretty obvious many of you have no intention of doing so.
