I got a phone call at work from the other day (a recording) that said, "Hello, this is the US Economy calling to let you know that you can–’

I hung up. I don’t want that slacker asking to borrow any more money.

If I get my hands on any money I’m hoping to give it to people who took out mortgages that they knew they didn’t have a cat in hells chance of paying off, but thought that they would sell the purchased property for a nice big fat profit in a short time… but unfortunately didn’t.

I mean its only fair that they dont suffer for their actions isn’t it?

Oh wait my governments already done it for me.
