Kudos, Insomniac, this is the most cogent summation of the last twenty years of economic and social policy. I’m not being funny here.

Fabulous – I want to be one of your board of directors and as a lifelong saver in piggy banks – can I apply for it to be a bank holding company too?

Awesome! Here’s the deal! You give me a mortgage, I won’t pay it, and then we can both get the government to cough up cash to help us through the tough times ahead!

High 5!

MichelleMalkin.com is no longer a blog. I am putting in an application to the Fed to become a bank holding company, too.

Who’s in with me?

I’ll take half.

Any company that can and doesn’t apply to be a “bank holding company” might very well be stupid. Think about it, it’s a loan to do whatever they want that they probably will never have to pay back. All they have to do is give jobs and ~~Bribes~~ donations to the right people, DUH! Politics Chicago style!
