"[NEW YORK] The agency that mails out coupons for digital TV
converter boxes expects to eliminate its wait list in two and a
half weeks, an official said Thursday."

*Nice to hear that the stimulus package is already trickling down
to benefit the unemployed. Watching TV should keep everyone's
mind off of the economy.

I'd rather use work to distract myself, besides I'll need the
income to pay for my neighbors' homes, cars, TV's, cellphones,
healthcare, dinner and entertainment. That's just the bills
congress passed this week, who knows what I'll have to pay for next
week.


Me too, living within my means and saving for retirement really
worked out. I am really glad I can help out people who bought a
house they couldn't afford or maybe speculated in real estate and
lost or even those poor folks who greedily scammed the system with
their banks or brokerages and need our money to pay their $50
Million bonuses for the great work they did.

The blue team is really doing a good job showing us how stupid we
were. The best comment I heard was from Dennis Miller. He mentioned
that many of us donate to various overseas charities where we get
letters from individuals telling us how they were able to go to
school or make advances in their life and they also included a
picture. So Miller asked since Obama and the rest of the blue team
want half of the country to pay for the other half will we get a
picture of who we are supporting?

Here is one picture of the first lady serving "the homeless" in DC.
I'm sure cellphones are essential equipment for the "homeless" of
today. Tough enough for me sweating out how I'm going to send my
three "high honor roll" kids to college, now that their college
savings are wiped out, but I've got to worry about keeping the
growing number of non productive members of society, in cellphones

Of course, if you lost your home, it is difficult to have a landline. To
some people it may look like extravagance, but in order to communicate -
perhaps with a prospective employer, police, or even family - a cellphone
might be the economical answer. All this pointed out by my wonderful
spouse.

Btw, I'm glad we have finished putting the kids through college, because
on my current salary it would be difficult. And, oh yeah, I am of the
opinion that parents should educate their children. That includes
financial wisdom, showing that it takes effort to make a living, and that
it may be difficult for a person to find his/her "right" career.

Your wife and you, are absolutely correct, and that is where I most have a
problem with this current situation, and this particular story. Michelle
Obama should be teaching these "homeless" folks, to cook and serve
themselves. With her Princeton education, she should be teaching them how to
dig themselves out of their financial problems, but instead, she's telling
productive people to give their time to doing this work, and stealing food
from the Whitehouse
