You knew it was coming. Hey, it is an election year and if the voters are crying about gas prices, then gas prices will come down before the election. This time the "voters are crying about the economy" (I do not believe this is really the #1 concern of the voters, but that is what the pollsters want us to believe), so Bush, Congress, the Fed, and every candidate down to dog catchers has a solution for RIGHT NOW. (Anything they do in haste, we pay for agonizingly slowly over decades in TAXES)...So here the Candidates, Bush and Congress come to the RESCUE  !!!  Throw money at the problem is the refrain.

Wait ! Did you think you would get any tax rebate, ect these guys come up with ? Think again, sport.

Americans are about to learn a lesson in monetary policy in the very near future.   Ohhh, wait thats doom and gloom and I am not supposed to talk about that, continue with head in sand in hopes that problem goes away.
