“The Week in Review: Money Issues” is my weekly blog research on financial topics that define us as Americans, and shape the way we should do business.
Go President Obama … Your country has spoken!
Whoa … it’s about freaking time! Can you imagine this: in a few short weeks the idiot (and his posse) will have left the building! NO more scare tactics. NO more turning their back on victims during grand-scale emergencies! We’re going to get out of Iraq, and not start any more trouble with any other countries! This is actually happening … This is our time, it’s our nation now … and whoever doesn’t like it (ex. people who love to live in a fearful state and watch Fox News) can kindly move up to Canada (what’s that Canada? Oh, they don’t want you up there either).
For those who care about this country’s economy (not to mention, their own finances) get ready for some serious change … YES WE CAN! Oh, that feels great to say. BTW: I found some good articles to help you pass the time, until closing time (read: beer-o-clock). Enjoy: Continued

The big Iraq Mistake (“Uh, we thought they had WMDs.” Yea right!) has turned this nation’s pockets inside out! As the fifth anniversary of this huge lie has passed, know that it has taken over a $3 trillion dollar toll on our unstable economy.
This idiot, who burns everything he touches, and his cronies tried to sell us on a cheap war (since when is any war cheap?). Then they cut taxes on the rich even though they ran through the Clinton Era surplus. Guess what happened after this? They further funded it through borrowing from other countries (who don’t have our best interests at heart; believe that). The results of this on our economy: another $1 trillion added to the huge national debt.
Now, think about what else this money could’ve helped, if we weren’t fed that red-meat republican bu#$%@it. We could have helped our desperately poor citizens; we could have helped other allied countries who now hate us because of this big lie (freedom fries ring a bell?). Literacy rates are another thing we could have strived to increase — imagine what kind of boost that would have been to our economy. “Sorry, we can’t afford to fix that right now,” the politicians now have to confess!
