Does anyone else ever wonder....

...about the ponzi scheme known as the stock market? I heard it described the other day as, "The systematic fleecing of the populace by a select few." Let's all sing a chorus of "Happy days are here again."

...about "Rules of engagement in war?" What ever happened to, "All's fair in love and war?" Our military is hamstrung with "Rules of engagement." I pity these guys on the front lines today. With politicians and lawyers running the wars it's like making them fight with one hand tied behind their back.

...about the hazards of texting while driving and all the new laws proposed against it? Meanwhile new cars are coming out with big information screens in the center of the dash. It's going to be a lot worse than texting when everyone is driving around looking at those screens.

.....about all the recession talk? Traffic is the heaviest I've ever seen and malls are so crowded it's hard to even walk. Doesn't anyone work any more? If they're all out of work, where do they get the money to drive and shop? If they're employed, why aren't they at work?

.....about Wikileaks? Heads should roll and higher-ups should be fired or prosecuted. I haven't heard of anyone being punished except a lowly Private. Isn't anyone higher-up responsible?

.... the Congressman who cheated on his taxes among other crimes? He's complaining about being censured when he ought to be in jail.
