Hard working middle-class Americans recently bore the brunt of the multi-billion dollar bail-out of Corporate America. Only to be forced to watch the weekly antics of those like AIG Corporate exec's basking in the height of luxury of yet another half million dollar weekend retreat with that money. This is sickening, knowing that next week they will be asking for more from people they would snub their noses at us in reality, being so much better than us, you know.

   Everyone has seen the photos posted here at your neighborhood fast food establishments. They hang in the windows, they make your mouth water as you sit in the drive-through or stand at the counter, but when the time has arrived to unwrap the one in your sack it is nothing even close. Has anyone out there actually ever received their meal and it actually looked like these photos?

   Where does it all end? Americans are taxed heavily for their hard work so others can figure out ways to get more of our sweat to line their pockets, pay for expensive retreats, fancy homes, and fine cars. When will all us middle-class Americans get tired of this and just say NO!, we've had enough. If it is not corporate America it is our own governments; national, state, and local, spending our tax monies for their own benefit, the benefits of their friends, or their own egos.

   It all has to stop somewhere, and why not begin by just saying this is not what you promised me and I won't stand for it. This applies to politicians, sandwiches, automobiles, bail-outs, and yes even photographs.
