McCain on Economy: “I still need to be educated”

The current administration is making plans for a record bailout – a $700 billion rescue plan for Wall St – to help solve the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. This plan would put us in unchartered waters – a record national debt causing even more dependency on foreign governments and even more job loss (600,000 since the beginning of 2008). I don’t care if you’re a Republican or Democrat, generations of Americans will be paying for Wall Street’s mistakes for years to come. Our next president must be well versed and knowledgeable in economics. Watch this video and decide for yourself.

What does half a billion dollars get you?

Nowhere if you are Barak Obama or Hillary Clinton. According to the NYTimes, Mr. Obama has raised $268 million and Mrs. Clinton $215 million. Can you imagine what our inner city schools would look like if we gave them $500 million? They could buy desks, books and computer equipment…and invest in dropout prevention, athletic or music programs. We must reform our campaign finance laws NOW.
