I find it really interesting that despite government money being poured into the system peoples wages were still cut. Surely the extra money means they can afford to pay their employees properly. The fact they are part of a union should go a long way to resolving this position. Trade unions can and have proven to be highly effective in such circumstances here in the U.K

To call Obama a fascist I think may be a little harsh, as ProfS said 'one example does not a fascist make' and when you consider the harsh decisions that have to be made in such an economic climate the buck stops with one man and that man is Obama. You (possibly) voted this guy into power to make these decisions. Perhaps some of his views may be considered fascist but now is the time for hard line no bullshit decisions to get the U.S and indeed in turn the European economy's kick started again. The US and European economies relate to one another so closley that what effects one directly effects the other.

In the past there was a woman Priminister in the UK, her name as you may well know was Margerate Thatcher, she made some truly harsh decisions that I think were far more extreme than any measures yet employed in this current recession. Dont quote me but she basically said at one point, about struggling business' words to the effect of 'if you cant shape up and you cant pull through and you go under then it's tough shit'
