as an engine mechanic, i remember the last time this happened and it was absurd even now just thinking about it. - I lost my first home and my dog, and was forced to live out of my car for a month. The news told me it was because I was foolish and tried to get too much for my home loan. Id say a 41k loan on a mobile home is pretty lavish, and I was a fool to ever barter so unwisely. - My boss paid me overtime to pour mud into running engines and actually destroy working cars. it was called "cash for klunkers" and the idea was that people would be better off with a 45k car payment instead of a running car. The smoke from the engines closed a local elementary school playground. - Then president George W Bush cut me a "stimulus check" for about seven hundred dollars. I figure the idea was I would take that money and spend it on something nice...you know...treat myself after having to wash my clothes in a truck stop bathroom because some bank that was too big to fail couldnt fail this year. - I cashed that check and paid off some money i borrowed from a friend. George went on to paint weird portraits of veterans and world leaders. And the banks, well today im told theres another crisis....
