I forgot to mention the Daily Show with Jon Stewart


Jon Stewart, 5' 7", wishing Conan O'Brien, 6' 4", well before the fellow late-night-TV Gothamite left for Los Angeles and the Tonight Show. Then they talked about who was more of a freak.
In fact, Jon Stewart, mentioned something the other night that make sense to me about stimulating the economy. I hope Obama was watching....
Towards the end of the interview above with Gwen Ifill from PBS, he talks about consumer credit card debt. "Why not give US the money for just paying off our consumer debt and then we turn around give them the money... make it clean it. Hit the reset button. They will have the money and we will have no debt!"
When I faced major medical costs and sudden gas prices, I maxed out my credit cards.
And, lately the credit card companies have been more aggressive, even when I am paying them off.
Why not put the families and individuals that made the decision to get in to ARMs the opportunity to set up with their debt and the banks in Bankruptcy court.
And, instead of giving the money to the banks, give that BORROWED MONEY back to US for our DEBTs to the banks. Give US the money, and WE will give it back to the BANKs. Start over. Reset the economy.
Thanks Jon Stewart. Pass this along to your congressmen. I am
FD
