Colmarsh has it right. The repeal of Glass-Steagal Act with the Graham-Leach-Bliley fiasco just handed the keys to the bank vaults to the greedy 1% and the rest is history.
It is going to get worse. Stand by.

(a) <<NOTE: 38 USC 1114 note.>> Rate Adjustment.--Effective on
December 1, 2009, the Secretary of Veterans Affairs shall increase, in
accordance with subsection (c), the dollar amounts in effect on November
30, 2009, for the payment of disability compensation.
Why does it say an increase is effective dec. 1 2009? Why the word increase if there is no increase?

Are we at 0% because the price of gas has gone down?
That was an artificially produced number and should be thrown out. We had oilmen in office. Was it coincidence the price of oil shot up with them running things?
It is difficult enough to live on a fixed income. If COLA remains at 0 our difficulties will increase.

I really doubt we get a #1 in trade at the deadline. We can go with 2 #2's and a #3.
Of course, we will need clutch hitting with that scenario.

I got a feeling Mark is doing this one on purpose. He just can't be that dense.

With the tying run two hitters away, can you tell me who made the last 4 outs of the game? I can. How come those guys aren't labeled soft? How come the guy who hits the 3 run homer to get you within striking distance is soft?
Ridiculous.

Now put me in a public speaking scenario and I will piss in my pants.
At issue is the idea that a 3 run home run in the 8th inning when your team is "way behind" is not impressive - in fact "soft". It could very well be the spark the team needs to get back in the game.
I contend that no home run is soft, but a three run dinger in the 8th when your team is behind is, as a former player and coach, something that excites the heck out of me.
I guess I have said it as often and as many different ways as I can. It won't be the first time mover and I have not agreed on a topic, and it won't be the last. We agree on most things.
