Can we Give a Seven-Year Old a $700 Billion Blank Check?

Insightful, brilliant metaphor:

$700 Billion, with no questions asked!

[The proposal] may not be reviewed by any court of law or any administrative agency!


G.W. Bush already had a blank check on the Patriot Act, then to invade Iraq, now he wants to live the house with what's left of the bank.

Thanks Feministing for the link.

Speaking of understanding (financial markets), here is an hilarious video, that unfortunately is nothing but the truth.



Many thanks to Jean-Hugues who sent me this video a while ago.
