Who says our economy is in trouble?

[JDPriestly]

Old Town, Pasadena closed off the main shopping thoroughfare for a Ferrari show today.

Just down the street from the Porsche, Audi and Bentley showrooms.

Wealthy Americans can't afford to fund public education, Medicare, Social Security or help the unemployed. They need their money to buy expensive foreign cars.

Thought you might want to know what is really going on in our economy.

1. the truly sad part is that they have enough money for both - but want it all

incredible greed - cannot stand to see a dollar go for the general good of society when it could go in their pocket instead

2. We'll either oil up the guillotines

or get used to it. My money's on the latter - we just don't seem to have the spirit for the former this time around.

3. there is no "our" economy. we're not in this together.

there's an economy for the super-rich, which is doing just peachy.
then there's the economy for the rest of us, which is doing just sucky.

4. I can't wait to get rich and buy a Porsche...n/t

5. Perhaps the "Little Guy"?

Yes, who indeed says that the economy is in trouble, only the working poor and the unemployed, but what do they know about economics?!
