Those in office are the problem

We as a country, and probably a world, would be much better off and safer concerning banking practices if we would reform Congress instead of them applauding themselves about another bloated and erroneous 2,500-page law that will complicate and create more debt and insults the American people.

Let's get rid of Congress and their salaries and perks and worry about the banks we deal with ourselves. If you don't like Citibank or JP Morgan, use a local bank, or a savings and loan. How about a credit union?

Why do we repeatedly allow the same people who create the messes to bully us around and boast that they will correct the problems and save us? They are the problem. I can't wait for November. I just wish I had better alternatives than the typical crowd of people we put up there.

We must pull away from this overexpansion of government and the federal government thinking it can usurp the states' rights. It sickens me to listen to these pompous bums congratulating themselves on the radio. They should be apologizing for all the troubles they have caused the American people.
