Jingle Bells, the Markets Fell

To the tune of "Jingle Bells"

Markets Fall
Selling subprime loans
In an ACORN friendly way
Now the people’s homes
The banks will take away
These people could not pay
Their mortgage was too high
But that did not stop Fannie Mae
She yelled “Securitize!”

Oh, the markets fall,
the markets fall
Credit’s a dry well
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a hand basket to Hell!
The markets fall,
the markets fall
Credit’s a dry well
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a hand basket to Hell!

A month or two ago
I thought I was alright,
But then Miss Fannie Mae
Said the future’s not too bright
So said Barney Fwank,
“Misfortune is our lot
We all own part of a bankrupt bank
Now stick this in your slot!”

Oh, the markets fall,
the markets fall
Credit’s a dry well
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a hand basket to Hell!

Acouple of quotes for you by Dr. Lyle H. Rossiter Jr. M. D. from his book called THE LIBERAL MIND;THE PSYCHOLOGICAL CAUSES OF POLITICAL MADNESS (2008)
"The roots of liberalism-and its associated madness-can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind."
" Like spoiled, angry children, they {liberals} rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave."

And not an exact quote from the book but the ideas here condensed

While we do not say that liberals are ipso facto clinically mad, there are many characteristics of liberalism that are associated with the classic symptoms of madness, including:
*creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization
*satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence and compensation
*augmenting primitive feelings of envy
*rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government.

I have seen so many people like this in my career. People who never grow up and never want to. They think the world owes them a living as my grandma used to say.
