Subject: Re: "The Euro" by Oaklands on 2008/4/22 17:35:54 Bailing out the banks is a sore spot with me as well. Greed and stupidity led to the problem. If things don't continue to pick up my business could go down the toilet this year. I don't think the government could give a crap if we close up and my few employees lose their jobs. I could hear the snickers now if I were to ask for a bailout. The bad part about my situation is I am suffering due to these 2 factors which are out of my control. We'll help bailout large companies such as banks, airlines and automobile manufacturers but what about all the small businesses that are affected? Not a damn thing is ever done for these people. Please don't take me wrong. I am not a person who looks for handouts in any shape, form or fashion. I have never even drawn unemployment and I am 51 years old. All I am saying is when other factors affect your business and those people get a bailout it doesn't do anything for a small business that is affected by their dilemma. |
