1. Most everyone
in government has too much money, I'd say. They could all "give till it hurts" to get us through this mess.

Then we'll see how concerned they really are.

2. The money isn't the problem nearly as much as our PRIORITIES.
And the bailout has NOTHING to do with poverty, as far as I'm concerned.

In fact, it's a fine distraction from poverty.
