What?! The Saudi's, with their unlimited wealth and ability to travel anywhere on the globe, decided to come to the U.S. for their health care instead of a country with a fancy socialized medical system? Not to mention all the other foreign leaders who get treatment at Mayo yearly (like the Iraqi president having heart surgery there). I bet even public figures from the UK and Canada have had treatment there. So they spend millions of dollars on an ad during the most watched event in the world to make fun of suicide. Interesting. And they wonder why they got where they are. BTW, this ad aired during the Superbowl between Indianapolis v. Chicago. The Colts head coach, Tony Dungy, son committed suicide at college less than two years earlier at 18 years old. These people really are thick.

... and it's still getting worse.
Does anyone have an article that breaks that 4.6 trillion number down at all? I know the TARP bailout that gets all the news is actually just a small piece of the money being handed out (WHY ISN'T THE NEWS REPORTING THAT?!), but where does the rest come from?

And that's money that was spent without any real plan on how to best use it. And yet, 25 billion dollars is too much to ask for the auto industry?
