From the article Stocks plunge after bailout bill fails in House:“How could this have happened? Is there such a disconnect on Capitol Hill? This becomes a problem because Wall Street is very uncomfortable with uncertainty,” said Gordon Charlop, managing director with Rosenblatt Securities. “The bailout not going through sends a signal that Congress isn’t willing to do their part.”No, it doesn't!

I did not know that some (many?) illegal immigrants do pay Uncle Sam, and I am glad to read about it on MSNBC. Whether for conscience or for fear, some illegal aliens are paying into the government which provides the services they use. My hat is off to them. Then, of course, there is the automatic withholding, which accounts for some of them, no doubt. Either way, it is comforting to know

Someone finally can point the finger to what we knew all along, that is, we who grew up in the 60's drinking soda instead of water, milk, and juice -- or actually taking the time to eat real food and drinking some water with it.
