Nothing good ever comes out of such a rush job as happened with the TARP/Bailout.

How about quarantine the country?
Close all borders, stop foreign aid, pull all troops back home and use to assist the police.
recall all overseas diplomats.
That should save a few Dollars

Daily Horoscope for January 4

Leo

Even though you usually pride yourself on being the strong silent type, love has a way of unlocking your tongue. The words coming out of your mouth may be familiar, but your sense of timing makes all the difference right now. Keep in mind that you never know how a risky gesture will work out, although you can always hope for the best. When in doubt, take the more cautious path.
