QuoteOriginally posted by: KackToodlesQuoteOriginally posted by: albertmillsIt’s nice to see someone who seems genuinely pissed off. Being pissed is cheap. But it doesn't help solve our problems. Ranting and raving and pointing fingers doesn't grow the economy. We could lock up the 1000 wall street analysts and the economy would still be in the toilet. Instead of riling up the emotions of mobs, perhaps mr. stewart should stick to doing his job -- making childish jokes. Being pissed does help solve our problems by perhaps preventing a relapse of this type of thing. If short term greed can't be controlled by regulators then maybe it can be controlled by fear of mobs.
