The cliché juxtaposing Wall Street and Main Street was killed yesterday, beaten to death by Washington, D.C., legislators after a long period of overuse by presidential candidates and television pundits. The actual age of the cliché was unknown. The Wall Street/Main Street cliché is survived by two prominent catchphrases, It’s a Free Country! and It Is What It Is, and several lesser-known dependent idioms.

This is a bandaid that won’t work. Most of these fat cats in Wash. and Wall st. live off the stock mkt. They threw our money system in the toilet and now want the blue coller people to bail out their failing asses! They’ll Blow your money as fast as they recieve it. What is really happening? We cant trust these clowns with our hard earned dollers. This thing went from a few pages to over 400 and is padded with too much PORK. Be careful people, the sky may actualy be falling
