Yanks in Crisis

"The Great Depression altered the national consciousness. So far, the Great Recession has not."

But being manhandled by banks and credit card issuers might.

We do not use banks out of choice, we need them. We carry credit cards because we cannot function without them.

We American's want to be left alone by our government and be free to live our own lives as best we can but there are limits and those limits have been crossed.

As individuals there is nothing that we can do to combat abusers of our system of free enterprise. Only government can.
