I agree with most of what you are saying to move forward with &quot;green&quot; jobs and projects. I don&#039;t think we should bail out AIG nor any other Wall street company or big company that got them selves into financial problems. Go after the ones that created, the CEO&#039;s and other upper management that have raped the hard workers and small investers. Thousands of small business owners a day are having problems or going under and no one is even trying to help them out. Let Wall Street take care of it&#039;s own, let it live or die taking it&#039;s own down. They created the problems by trying to make a quick buck on somebody else&#039;s back. Unfurtanatly it was on the backs of a lot of small invester that worked hard for everthing the have invested. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Here is my problem with your comments though, why do you possibly think this is a &quot;Black&quot; issue or any other racial type issue?&lt;br&gt;A lot of people from all races and backgrounds have suffered huge losses if not lost all of their investments and possesions. To try and make this a &quot;black&quot; problem and infer that &quot;blacks&quot; have lost more then others is highly racial, not true and not needed. Don&#039;t make it something it is not. &quot;Blacks&quot; do need any more or any less help to get through this then any other race. The &quot;entitlement&quot; idology is what has caused a lot of these problems. It is the same &quot;entitlement&quot; idiology that is now driving the president and may other politicians to try and bail-out wall street on the backs of hard working tax-payers. Stop this vicious circle of racial bias that accomplishes nothing. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We can accomplish a lot more if we approch all issues with neutrality of race or eithnic background. Lets work together on improving all of our lives and those around without this kind of prejudice. We will accomplish more working united as Americans and ultimatly as world citizens if don&#039;t let petty things like race, eithnic background or religion bog us down. ONE NATION UNDER GOD!
