Yo. Just popping in here so that my online friends don’t worry about me. No, I’m not hospitalized (yet), I don’t have cancer, etc. I’m just too darn lazy to update because I have so much crap to do (Wow, isn’t that overused?).
I’m now the new treasurer of my grade level, and my first job is… SELL CLASS T-SHIRTS! Woohoo, what an intellectually stimulating activity!
(Note the heavy sarcasm, peoples. Come on, I know you can tell.)
Oh, and another reason why I didn’t update: ‘CAUSE THERE’S NOTHING TO UPDATE ABOUT. That’s right, no drama (Majorly, at least), no incentive to rant, nothing out of the ordinary.
But there is the US’s most frequent recession. I can’t believe our economy is nose-diving straight into a depression, possibly one that could rival that of the Great Depression. I mean, yesterday, within thirty minutes, the DOW (or whatever it’s called) went down from 520 to over 800 points, which is still not as big as the drop after Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac went out of business and the government decided to devise a $700 billion dollar bailout plan (coming out of OUR POCKETS), but who can deny that THIS IS NOT GOOD?
Oh, and from what my carpool’s head told me, the bailout plan shot up to $820 billion, and the damage done would take up to TWO TRILLION DOLLARS to repair. I think the only cost bigger than this would be our government’s national debt.
See, none of this would’ve happened if the government had more oversight over the CEOs of the mortgage banks. But noooo, the big businesses have toooo many regulations already, so why should those lying politicians interfere any further?
Uh-huh. Yeah.
