Government's Bailout Policies Are A Joke

Sometimes, when you're trying to figure out how and why the U.S. Government does what it does, all you can do is laugh... mainly because it hurts too much to cry. In the spirit of trying to keep a sense of humor about the incongruities of a government where it's okay for a Treasury Secretary to not pay his taxes and where it's okay to stick it to the little guys while the big guys go happily along their way fouling things up, here's a neat little cartoon that lays it quite succinctly. (Not sure how long this link will stay active, but if you come to this thread late, you can search for the "Wizard of Id" cartoon from March 29, 2009). Our thanks to the comics pages for keeping it real.
