Credit Crunch???

Whats the deal with the credit crisis? The government shovels money into bank after bank and still they just cover their bad loans and debt. These banks suspend credit lines, cancel credit cards, reduce credit limits and raise interest rates. This is strangling Americans and causing them to not spend, because they are afraid of losing their jobs. As long as banks refuse to free up credit to the small companies and the government gives billions to big companies, America will never recover. Remember, every time the U.S. economy has been down, it came back because of small businesses growing and hiring people. Right now, a small business can’t get a loan because banks are not loaning money and they are too small for the government radar. Small businesses can’t afford lobbyist to get them noticed by Washington, so they go un-heard and un-helped. The funny thing is small business pays the majority of the taxes that go to big companies and banks to bail them out, while these small businesses slip slowly into bankruptcy. This was once called taxation without representation and caused a revolution. I guess the solution is to get the government to give a small business billions in bailout money and then spend a million dollars to redecorate their office, that would get the attention. If someone does not stop this madness, we will have one big company that everyone will work for and one big bank that everyone will barrow from.
