Why not exclude all places that cater to the rich. Private clubs should not have rules: rules are for the serfs only. In fact, we should subsudize the private clubs, they should not pay property or sales taxes. You go rich and powerful, rules are not for you.
Poor little LadyJ! Typical Democommie. In case it got past you, the dems have totally screwed this country in the past 3+ years. We have a democommie in the White House who apparently never read the Constitution, while claiming to be a constitutional scholar. We had a democommie-controlled Congress (opposite of PROGRESS?)passing bills that "we'll have to pass before we know what's in it". This impostor president has violated the U. S. Constitution too many times to count. The Attorney General is a race-baiting gunrunner that refuses to stop illegal immigration. And, the head of NASA, a once-proud agency that put several men on the moon, is now our liason to the murderous Muslims. Great job, democommies! Sometimes I wish they really would try to take our guns.
Pat Bauer try t do right about the state but the Republican leader and all of them did not think of us. Only the money they will get from their rich corporation. Of Course the Democrats had union, so I won't vote for Bosma or whatever his name is.
Well you are talking about Republican, did all of the Damage in this state. Sure the Democrats did some but most is the Republican. The Republican set us back not going forward. Hurry passed bills won't listen to any amendment our way only. The Republicans drew up these district so they could win again. Which is a crying shame. I will not vote for any Republican and I got the list who voted for the RTW Bill and who didn't. Tired of the Republicans
Actually, it was Greenspan who encouraged the elderly to refinance their homes, using their equity to boost the economy after 9/11. In addition, it was George Bush and Barney Frank who jointly suggested that everyone should hold a piece of the rock. It was the Bush Administration, namely Treasury Secretary Paulson who deregulated Wall Street and Lenders such as Countrywide, Washington Mutual, Wachovia, Bank of America, and Wells Fargo. When the TARP Bailout Proposal went to Capitol Hill in October 2008, Treasury Secretary Paulson asked for, and received, full immunity from future prosecution, dating back to his time as CEO of Goldman Sachs, the co-recipient of the initial $350 Billion Dollar Tarp Bailout Payment for Wall Street, back in October 2008. It was the US Treasury and the Federal Reserve, both controlled by the Bush Administration, that created sub-prime mortgages, starting in 2004. Many members of the House and Senate, on both sides of the aisle, benefited from home mortgage refinancing. Banks, appraisers, and realtors pushed people into home mortgages they had no business accepting, based on claims that the housing market would only get better. Average Americans did not create Credit Default Swaps, I think those creations happened on Wall Street. Spend some time at the library, you will be shocked by what your research brings forth.
