Is this a $trillion dollar increase on the American people??

Brought to you by the tax-cutting Republican Party?

Does that help put it in perspective for you? Do you like tax increases? That is exactly what it is.

I'm talking about this trillion dollar bailout for the big banks. I hope the people understand just exactly what they are being asked to pay.

We can't afford $6 dollars an hour for minimum wage. We can't afford healthcare for our veterans or our citizens. We can't afford our own energy plan. We can't afford good education for all our children. But we can afford a $trillion dollars for the fat cats on Wall Street?

It's a tax increase folks. A very huge monstrous tax increase!

The Democrats need to step up and tell the people the truth about this bailout. It is not a loan. It is money from the pockets of Republicans and Democrats given to the big bankers so they can continue to live the lifestyles to which they have become accustomed...

2. All the residents of Alaska may as well sign over that dividend check to the US Gov right now.
