The Economy - Not Funny Anymore

All these nonsense fixer-up plans politicians are throwing around are meaningless.  It's all the same "give more stuff to my faction and to hell with everyone else" nonsense that politicians always blather about.  Whatever the solution is, it isn't going to be one where everyone just gives me all of their money.  None of these loot divvying strategies have worked.  The troubles with the world economy are no longer funny.
