The economic rivers of the United States are at flash-flood stage and Congress is only just now beginning to discuss swimming lessons. Talk about a fish out of water.

It must be noted that at least some of the financial problems our country is now facing were exacerbated, if not directly caused, by a few of those barracudas in government currently bailing the water out of their own basements in Washington. But instead of admitting that they are helping to sink this ship of state, they’re grabbing their own life vests and pushing “we, the people” overboard.
